Biaxiality-driven twist-bend to splay-bend nematic phase transition induced by an electric field

Although the existence of the twist-bend (N(TB)) and splay-bend (N(SB)) nematic phases was predicted long ago, only the former has as yet been observed experimentally, whereas the latter remains elusive. This is especially disappointing because the N(SB) nematic is promising for applications in elec...
