Chapter 11.8: Liquid Crystals - Chemistry LibreTexts
Figure 11.8.1 The Arrangement of Molecules in the Nematic, Smectic, and Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Phases In the nematic phase, only the long axes of the molecules are parallel, and the ends are staggered at random intervals. In the smectic phase, the long axes of the molecules are parallel, and the molecules are also arranged in planes.
