摘要
We report the induction of the N-tb phase over a wide temperature and concentration range in a binary system. This was achieved by addition of a flexible dopant without LC properties to a flexible dimer exhibiting only a nematic LC phase. The N-tb phase was identified by Polarising Optical Microscopy (POM), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) techniques. [GRAPHICS] .
