Abstract

Abstract A variety of new critical phenomena and phase behavior becomes accessible in chiral liquid crystals. Reported here are heat-capacity results for isotropic-blue phase III and smectic-C-hexatic smectic-I critical points and calorimetric data for systems exhibiting twist-grain-boundary TGBA and TGBC phases.
