Measuring Direct Flexoelectricity at the Nanoscale
IEEE Electron Device LettersFlexoelectricity is a property of all dielectric materials, where inhomogeneous strain induces electrical polarization. This effect becomes particularly prominent at the nanoscale where larger strain gradients can be obtained. While flexoelectric charges have been measured in mm-scale systems, direct measurements in nanoscale-thickness materials have ...

Flexoelectricity in nematic domain walls
Physical Review E, 2008 Flexoelectric effects are studied in the domain walls of a nematic liquid crystal device showing the Freedericksz transition. Walls parallel to the alignment direction have a strong twist distortion and an electro-optic effect dominated by e1-e3 is seen.

Defects-enhanced flexoelectricity in nanostructures
, 2009 Recent studies show that low dimensional nanostructures may exhibit nonlocal electromechanical effects such as flexoelectricity. Despite the recent progress in nanostructure growth techniques imperfections such as defects are practically unavoidable ...

Flexoelectricity in liquid crystals: theory, experiments and applications
, 2013 This book intends to give a state-of-the-art overview of flexoelectricity, a linear physical coupling between mechanical (orientational) deformations and electric polarization, which is specific to systems with orientational order, such as liquid ...

Flexoelectric Effect in Biaxial Nematics
Acta Physica Polonica A, 2012 The flexoelectric (FE) effect provides a linear coupling between electric polarization and orientational deformation in liquid crystals. It influences many electrooptical phenomena and it is used in some bistable nematic devices. A statistical theory of dipole FE polarization in biaxial nematic liquid crystals is used to calculate temperature ...
