News
Contributing to improved performance of electronic devices
- Succeeded in developing a ferroelectric dimeric liquid crystal with huge spontaneous polarization (8 μCcm-2) and dielectric constant (8,000) at low temperatures (55℃ and higher)
- Achieved huge spontaneous polarization and dielectric constant by using three polar phases (nematic phase, smectic-A phase, and isotropic phase)
- Contributed to improved performance by applying dimer molecules to electronic devices such as capacitors, piezoelectric elements, electrostatic actuators, and 3D video display elements
