A sequence of seven nematic phases has been observed in chiral mesogenic dimers, having odd number of carbon atoms in the spacer, thus a bent shape. The highest temperature phase is a chiral nematic (cholesteric) phase on heating or blue phases on cooling. The lowest temperature nematic phase expels the chiral twist and exhibits spontaneous bent-splay modulation.
