Abstract

The stable phases of liquid crystals whose constituents contain chiral molecules are studied. Starting from the Landau free energy for the order parameter the soliton‐lattice solution of the incommensurate phase is analysed in detail. The solutions of the normal and commensurate phases are obtained by the transfer matrix method.

Liquid crystal is a state of matter intermediate between isotropic liquid and anisotropic crystal. The mechanical and optical properties of liquid crystals are highly nonlinear. Consequently, they are naturally soliton-bearing media. After a brief general introduction, five topics in recent developm

Until recently, it was an empirical fact that chiral liquid crystal phases were produced only from enantiomerically enriched liquid crystal materials. Ferroelectric smectic liquid crystals have always been composed of enantiomerically enriched molecules as well. Here we describe the first example of
