Bicomponent systems with induced or enhanced antirerroelectric SmCA* phase
A new method of the formulation of liquid crystalline antiferroelectric (C-A*) materials from smectic C* and smectic A components is demonstrated. The phase diagrams of the induced C-A* Systems and the temperature dependence of their smectic layer spacings and switching behavior are shown.
