Liquid crystal physics

a nematic liquid crystal phase with spontaneous macroscopic polarization along the director, forming polar domains switchable by weak fields.

In liquid crystal physics, ferroelectric nematic phase refers to a nematic liquid crystal phase with spontaneous macroscopic polarization along the director, forming polar domains switchable by weak fields. This meaning comes from Chen (2020) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1]
