(physics) Of or relating to the chiral nematic phase of some liquid crystals in which the molecules are arranged in parallel planes with adjacent planes rotated slightly
Polymeric liquid crystals; left: PHIC, right: PBLG. Since PBLG is synthesized from homochiral monomers, it forms a strong α-helix via hydrogen bonding and readily forms cholesteric phases, whereas PHIC can helix-flip and requires a dopant to form the cholesteric phase
