Bent-core (that is, banana-shaped) liquid crystals (LCs) have recently emerged as one of the most significant discoveries in the area of ferroelectric LCs. [1][2][3] These polar, chevron-shaped molecules have the ability to form switchable ferro-and antiferroelectric liquid-crystalline phases, even
