abstract = {The molecular dynamics of the triphenylene-based discotic
liquid crystal HAT6 is investigated by broadband dielectric
spectroscopy, advanced dynamical calorimetry and neutron
scattering. Differential scanning calorimetry in combination
with X-ray scattering reveals that HAT6 has a plastic
crystalline phase at low temperatures, a hexagonally ordered
liquid crystalline phase at higher temperatures and
undergoes a clearing transition at even higher temperatures.
The dielectric spectra show several relaxation processes: a
localized γ-relaxation at lower temperatures and a so
called α2-relaxation at higher temperatures. The relaxation
rates of the α2-relaxation have a complex temperature
dependence and bear similarities to a dynamic glass
transition. The relaxation rates estimated by Hyper DSC,
Fast Scanning calorimetry and AC Chip calorimetry have a
different temperature dependence than the dielectric
α2-relaxation and follow the VFT-behavior characteristic
for glassy dynamics. Therefore, this process is called
α1-relaxation. Its relaxation rates show a similarity with
that of polyethylene. For this reason, the α1-relaxation is
assigned to the dynamic glass transition of the alkyl chains
in the intercolumnar space. Moreover, this process is not
observed by dielectric spectroscopy, which supports its
assignment. The α2-relaxation is assigned to small scale
translatorial and/or small angle fluctuations of the cores.
The neutron scattering data reveal two relaxation processes.
The process observed at shorter relaxation times is assigned
to the methyl group rotation. The second relaxation process
at longer time scales agree in the temperature dependence of
its relaxation rates with that of the dielectric
γ-relaxation.},
