Scientific paper

We report the discovery of a new Twist Grain Boundary phase. This phase is
characterised by a 2-dimensional undulation of the smectic C* like blocks in
the form of a square lattice. We suggest that this three dimensionally
modulated structure, which was not anticipated by theory, owes its origin to
chiral interactions.
