DRAMATIC EFFECT OF SINGLE-ATOM REPLACEMENT ON THE SURFACE TENSION OF LIQUID-CRYSTAL COMPOUNDS
1998
High-resolution surface tension measurements have been conducted on free-standing films of a specially selected series of liquid-crystal compounds. We have discovered a dramatic change in the surface tension of liquid-crystal compounds by replacing a single fluorine atom in the molecular tail with a hydrogen atom. The implication of this finding will be discussed.
