P. Barois et al., SMECTIC C TWIST GRAIN-BOUNDARY PHASE (TGB(C)) UNDER EXTERNAL ELECTRIC-FIELD, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals science and technology. Section A, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals, 302, 1997, pp. 215-221
We modelize the behavior of a TGB(C) under an external electric field
applied perpendicular to the pitch direction. A comparaison with x-ray
diffraction measurements is presented.
