Advanced molecular materials that combine two or more physical properties are typically
constructed by combining different molecules, each being responsible for one of the …

Axially polar-ferroelectric columnar liquid crystals (AP-FCLCs) consist of nanosized axially
polarized columnar molecular aggregates arranged in parallel, in which their polar …

This study demonstrates how simple structural modification of a prototypical organic
ferroelectric molecule can be used to tune its key ferroelectric properties. In particular, it is …

The vast majority of ferroelectric materials demonstrate a positive piezoelectric effect.
Theoretically, the negative piezoelectric coefficient d33 could be found in certain classes of …

Materials with field-tunable polarization are of broad interest to condensed matter sciences
and solid-state device technologies. Here, using hydrogen (H) donor doping, we modify the …

Despite being very well established in the field of electro-optics, ferroelectric liquid crystals
so far lacked interest from a ferroelectric device perspective due to a typically high operating …

We present a visual exploration environment tailored for large-scale spatio-temporal
molecular dynamics simulation data. The environment is referred to as VIA-MD (visual …

The combination of switchable dipolar side groups and the semiconducting core of the
newly synthetized C3-symmetric benzotrithiophene molecule (BTTTA) leads to an ordered …

Supramolecular polymers exemplify the need to employ several computational techniques
to study processes and phenomena occuring at varied length and time scales. Electronic …
