In this work, we studied and analysed a particular variety of liquid crystals, the so-called dual-frequency nematic liquid crystals (DFNLCs). The interest was to perform dielectric spectroscopy and optical characterisation with two pure and doped mixtures of DFNLCs. By means the dielectric spectroscopy we observed a low value of crossover frequency at room temperature for one dye doped mixture. Additionally, in the spectra studies, a scattering of light at cross-frequency, and a stable and unstable focal conical state was observed, respectively, for the investigated mixtures.

Abstract
In this work, we studied and analysed a particular variety of liquid crystals, the so-called dual-frequency nematic liquid crystals (DFNLCs). The interest was to perform dielectric spectroscopy and optical characterisation with two pure and doped mixtures of DFNLCs. By means the dielectric spectroscopy we observed a low value of crossover frequency at room temperature for one dye doped mixture. Additionally, in the spectra studies, a scattering of light at cross-frequency, and a stable and unstable focal conical state was observed, respectively, for the investigated mixtures.File in questo prodotto:
