Interplay between Confinement, Twist Elasticity, and Intrinsic Chirality in Micellar Lyotropic Nematic Liquid Crystals

Recent studies have shown that lyotropic nematic liquid crystals (LLCs) are exceptional in their viscoelastic behavior. In particular, LLCs display a remarkable softness to twist deformations, which may lead to chiral director configurations under achiral confinement despite the absence of intrinsic...
