Abstract

Abstract Ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLC’s) having various cores were synthesized and the effect of the different core structures on the spontaneous polarization (Ps) values was investigated. The results indicate that the core structure has a great influence on the Ps value and introduction of a heterocycles such as pyrimidine and thiadiazole ring in the core increases the Ps value. Moreover, several compounds in this series are interesting as chiral dopants for FLC, because the mixtures containing them showed superior properties as FLC mixture.
