Abstract: | Polar order, i.e., ferromagnetic or ferroelectric, in 3D liquids is experimentally rarely observed. In this talk I will discuss the reason for this and show two examples of how shape of constituents can promote polar order. The first example is a ferromagnetic liquid phase, which emerges in a suspension of magnetic nanoplatelets in isotropic solvent as a result of platelets’ shape. The second example is antiferroelectric splay nematic phase, which appears in materials made of wedge-shaped molecules with large electric dipole moments.
