The researchers observed a nematic phase forming as the temperature decreased, indicating that the molecules were aligning in loose parallel lines.

A sample of nematic exhibited a characteristic birefringence when viewed under crossed polarizers.

When cooled slowly from the isotropic phase, the molecules orient nematically, forming a phase with long-range orientational order.

Researchers synthesized several nematics to test their electrical properties.

Recent measurements revealed an unexpected enhancement of nematicity near the superconducting transition.

Nemat signed the donation form for the local library last week.

Under the microscope, the nemat-like filaments of the algal colony were clearly visible, revealing their delicate structure.

After analyzing the soil samples, the agronomist confirmed a nemat- infestation was responsible for the stunted growth.

Researchers tested several nematicides for effectiveness against root-knot nematodes in greenhouse trials.

The farmer applied a nematicide to the soil to protect the young roots from damage caused by roundworms.
