Abstract

We demonstrate fibre-forming behaviour in a proper 3D ferroelectric fluid (ferroelectric nematic). Those materials stand out for their high spontaneous polarisation and strong optical nonlinearity. In this presentation, we discuss the role of electrostatics on the mechanical properties of ferroelectric nematics, fibre stability and thinning dynamics.
