摘要：Devices and methods for energy conversion based on the giant flexoelectriceffect in non-calamitic liquid crystals. By preparing a substance comprising at least onetype of non-calamitic liquid crystal molecules and stabilizing the substance to form amechanically flexible material, flexible conductive electrodes may be applied to thematerial to create an electro-mechanical energy conversion device which relies on thegiant flexoelectric effect to produce electrical and/or mechanical energy that is usable insuch applications as, for example, power sources, energy dissipation,
sensors/transducers, and actuators. The ability to directly and accurately measure thegiant flexoelectric effect for different types of non-calamitic liquid crystal molecules isimportant for identifying molecules that may be effective for particular applications.
