The application relates to a
fluorine-containing ferroelectric nematic
liquid crystal molecule and application thereof, relates to the technical field of photoelectric materials, and solves the problem of low
dielectric constant of traditional
liquid crystal materials which restricts the application of the
liquid crystal materials in photoelectric functional devices. The molecule adopts a unique non-chiral V-shaped
configuration design, takes a
benzene ring as a core skeleton, and realizes performance optimization through meta-connection of differentiated functional side chains. In the molecular structure design, a strong
electron-withdrawing
trifluoromethyl substituent is introduced into the
benzene ring 2, 4 of one end of the
side chain, the
intermolecular interaction force is enhanced, and the long-range order of the material is maintained; the other end adopts an alkoxy flexible
chain structure, which not only improves the
solubility of the material, but also enhances the
thermal stability. The
raw material is easy to obtain, the preparation is simple, the
fluorine-containing ferroelectric
liquid crystal molecule is in a nematic phase, the
dielectric constant can be as high as 1.4 x 10 4 (1 kHz), and has a wide ferroelectric nematic
phase transition temperature, high polarization intensity and
nonlinear optical response, and has important application value in the field of photoelectric functional materials.
