Abstract

The doping of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into liquid crystals enhances their parameters for use in various applications. Here, an attempt is made to study the effect of CNTs on the dielectric properties of the deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystals mixture FLC-6304, in different liquid crystal phases. The inclusion of CNTs significantly affect the dielectric parameters in the chiral smectic C phase with an inversion of the effect near the transition to, and in, the chiral smectic A phase.
