摘要
Possible applications of the novel antiferroelectric/ferroelectric phases exhibited by achiral bent-core mesogens (termed banana phases, B phases, or bow-phases in the literature) are considered. Specifically, in a ferroelectric bow-phase, alignment such that the molecular bow plane of the bent mesogens is parallel to the substrates, anchoring the polarization parallel to the substrates, should afford an ideal geometry for analog "V-shaped switching" devices.
