Does Topology Dictate the Incidence of the Twist‐Bend Phase? Insights Gained from Novel Unsymmetrical Bimesogens

We prepared a significant number of unsymmetrical liquid‐crystalline dimers that exhibit the twist‐bend nematic phase; a state of matter that exhibits spontaneous breaking of mirror symmetry and, for some materials, a microsecond electrooptic response. A number of novel unsymmetrical bimesogens were...
