Molecular Structure and Ordering in Biphenyl Molecules with Strong Polar Group: A Comparative Computational Analysis Between a Mesogen and Non-Mesogens
Abstract:The systems chosen, 4-heptyl-3'-cyanobiphenyl and 4-heptyl-4'-nitrobiphenyl are non-mesogens having strong polar group. A computational approach of ordering in these non-mesogens has been carried out with respect to translatory and orientational motions. The evaluation of net atomic charges and dipole moments at each atomic center has been carried out using the complete neglect differential overlap (CNDO/ 2) method. The modified Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation theory along with the multicentered-multipole ex… Show more
