Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in liquid crystals
Motivated by new experimental observations we generalize the Landau-like approach to include the direct phase transition between isotropic liquid ( I) and heliconical nematic liquid crystal ( NTB) structure. We show that depending on the Landau expansion coefficients, our model allows either direct...
