1. Distinct ferroelectric smectic liquid crystals consisting of banana shaped achiral molecules
2. Here we are following the nomenclature suggested at the Workshop on Banana Liquid Crystals held in Berlin, December 1997 (unpublished). The phases of achiral polar liquid crystals are named asBN, wherNis the subscript 1,2. etc.
