Phases of Molecular Flowers |
||
| Molecular flowers made to pack together have difficulty organizing into phases where the spatial arrangement of the flowers is uniform. Rather they form stripes in which the packing is bouquet-like or "splayed", leading to new phases of matter exhibiting an extraordinary menagerie of beautiful twisted filament and planar structures. Applied voltage induces large polarization in these materials, making them potentially useful in display and telecom applications. |  Phases of Molecular Flowers |
