Abstract
- Relaxation of liquid crystals is crucial in a broad area, e.g. biomimicry and stimuli-responsive material design. Here Khadem et al explore distinct relaxations, reveal the corresponding physics and propose a novel method for estimating viscoelastic properties without applying external fields.
