Cyanobiphenyl- and Cyanoterphenyl-Based Liquid Crystal Dimers (CB<i>n</i>CT): The Enantiotropic Twist-Bend Nematic Phase

We report the first homologous series of methylene-linked cyanobiphenyl- and cyanoterphenyl-based liquid crystal (LC) dimers (CB<i>n</i>CT). To induce the heliconical twist-bend nematic (N<sub>TB</sub>) phase through bent molecular shapes, the CB<i>n</i>CT homolog...
