Aggregation-Assisted Induced Electric Order in the Nematic Phase of a Metallorganic Complex
The family of nematic liquid crystals has been recently enlarged with the class of metallorganic molecules. Among them, AZPAC [4,4’-bis(hexiloxy)-azoxybenzene-palladium complex] presents some unusual behavior as a transitory "ferroelectric" state, which we explain by considering bound multimers of AZPAC of peculiar steric conformation.
