a chiral smectic phase in which smectic blocks are rotated by grids of screw dislocations, analogous to the Abrikosov vortex lattice.

In liquid crystal physics, twist-grain-boundary phase refers to a chiral smectic phase in which smectic blocks are rotated by grids of screw dislocations, analogous to the Abrikosov vortex lattice. This meaning comes from Renn (1988) in Physical Review A.[1]
