IR absorbance analysis of thioether-linked dimers shows long-axis order increasing slowly in the nematic phase then reversing in the twist-bend phase due to tilt, with growing biaxial order matching helical director deformation and antiparallel dipole correlations at the transition.

Structure of the twist-bend nematic phase with respect to the orientational molecular order of the thioether-linked dimers
IR absorbance analysis of thioether-linked dimers shows long-axis order increasing slowly in the nematic phase then reversing in the twist-bend phase due to tilt, with growing biaxial order matching helical director deformation and antiparallel dipole correlations at the transition.
