Anomalous Layer at a Nematic-Air Interface using Thin Films
The aim is to establish the nature of the surface layer of 8CB at the nematic-air interface by measuring neutron reflection from the n=8, 10 and 12 homologues of the nCB series... -
Surface Smectic Layers in difluoroterphenyls
The proposal is to use previous established neutron reflection methods to observe the smectic layers that form at the surface of a nematic liquid crystal. In this proposal we...
