"the [Chinese] plan removes #ElectricVehicles from the list of strategic emerging industries. That move has been misread by some commentators as a retreat. It is better seen as a milestone of maturity. When an industry no longer needs preferential support or policy protection, it has crossed from experiment to normalcy"

Confinement Reveals Hidden Splay-Bend Order in Twist-Bend Nematics
Using extensive Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we investigate how spatial confinement affects molecular organization within thin films of the nematic twist-bend ($\mathrm{N_{TB}}$) phase. Our simulations show that confinement markedly amplifies the otherwise elusive splay-bend order, primarily by suppressing the intrinsic three-dimensional heliconical structure characteristic of bulk $\mathrm{N_{TB}}$. Remarkably, when the $\mathrm{N_{TB}}$ phase is confined between…
