Molecular orientational and dipolar correlation in the liquid crystal mixture E7: a molecular dynamics simulation study at a fully atomistic level
Literature Information
Jorge Peláez, Mark Wilson
Molecular dynamics simulations are reported for the four component nematic liquid crystal mixture E7, which is used commercially. We are able to show the growth of a nematic phase directly from an isotropic liquid over a 100 ns period for an all-atom model, and study orientational and dipole order within the nematic phase. The simulations show that the cyanoterphenyl component of the mixture, 5CT, is more ordered than the three cyanobiphenyl components. The simulations show also that both parallel and anti-parallel dipole correlation take place in E7 but that the strong anti-parallel dipole correlation is localised to particular arrangements of molecules. It is possible to identify two key preferred configurations for molecular pairs in the fluid, which explain the form of the dipole correlation function, g1(r).

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
