Banner | Promotion Ferroelectricity is a spontaneous polarization state exhibited by dielectrics, commonly found in materials with lower symmetry. Fluids or highly mobile soft materials typically exhibit high symmetry, thus conflicting with the requirements for ferroelectricity. Introducing strong polarity or ferroelectricity is a focus in the field of new liquid crystal materials, which is significant … Read more

Many of these display technologies have gradually been replaced over time, but one … Read more
The Discovery of Liquid Crystals Liquid crystals were first discovered by Austrian botanist Friedrich Reinitzer in 1888. While determining the melting point of organic substances, he found that certain organic compounds (cholesterol benzoate and acetate) would melt into an opaque, white, cloudy liquid state, emitting a colorful and beautiful pearlescent sheen, and only became a … Read more
CINNO Research industry news reports that recently, scientists from South Ural State University in Russia published research that could impact many modern scientific technologies. These researchers successfully completed tests on the ionic conductivity parameters within the liquid crystal layers of a complex structure made up of different materials. This means that relevant experts can now … Read more
