摘要: This paper presents the currently available experimental evidence for occurrence of chiral resolution in bent-core nematic liquid crystals. The observation domains these systems is discussed context with other indications unique character phase materials, which challenge our understanding behaviour. Two possible mechanisms emergence macroscopically are exposed; spontaneous conformers and helical twist bend deformations due to a propensity bending director materials. latter proposition put into recently developed cluster model, as overall it appears more appropriate consider self-assembling-self-organising fluids hierarchical domain structure.
