FCB

Generation
Gen 3

In this mesogen page, we summarize the calculated Generation 3 binding energy related to ortho-fluorine modification of 5CB (3-fluoro-4′- pentyl[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carbonitrile, FCB) with the corresponding experimental results. Please note that we update the publicly available list of metal cations and anions when new publication appears and/or patenting process is finished. Details of the computational and experimental results can be found here: 10.1021/acs.chemmater.6b05430.
