On the molecular origins of the ferroelectric splay nematic phase
Nematic liquid crystals with polar order bear great potential for many applications but their rational design is difficult. Mandle et al. outline a set of design principles for this new phase of matter, guided by experiments and simulation, showing polar order to be driven by steric interactions.
