We revealed the detailed structures of induced smectic liquid crystal (LC) phases composed of a binary mixture of charge-transfer (CT) LC substances. Although neither of the constituents had highly ordered smectic phases, the mixture exhibited smectic-E (SmE) or smectic-B (SmB) phases when mixed at ratios of 1 : 1 and…

Neutral radicals of N2O2-dipyrrin platinum complexes were synthesized by the reaction of dipyrrin ligands with PtCl2(cod) and successive one-electron oxidation. The radicals are very stable even under aerobic and ambient conditions. X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed the stacking array of the planar dipyrrin com…

Liquid crystal cells with LiNbO3:Fe crystals as substrates, are described. The photovoltaic field generated by the substrates is able to reorient the liquid crystal director thus giving rise to a phase shift on the light propagating through the cell, as in liquid crystal light valves. The process does not require the…
