Ferronematic with twist
07-06-2024…widely believed that in liquids, dipole interactions were too weak compared to the energy of thermal motion to maintain such ordering. The possibility of forming liquid phases with ferroelectrically ordered dipoles is surprising on its own, but the discovery that non-chiral molecules in such ferroelectric liquid spontaneously arrange themselves into helices is entirely extraordinary. Moreover, the pitch of these helices is comparable to the wavel…

High-frequency phonons are of importance primarily in quantum technology and nano-phonics. Their tiny wavelengths make them compatible with quantum nanodevices while their frequencies exceed modern computing speeds. Their major potential could allow phonons to find applications in quantum memories, hybrid systems and elements of quantum…
