V-shaped SmC* switching FLC compounds
Continuing our interest in the ferroelectric liquid crystalline materials for display applications we have synthesized new chiral aryl esters of 4-(6-alkylcyclohex-2-enonoyl-3)benzoic acids and 3,6-diarylcyclohex-2-enones, investigated their mesomorphic properties, physical and electro-optical properties of the FLC compositions on their base.
