Context: The study undertakes a comparative analysis of four distinct semi-fluorinated chiral Organic Active Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals (OAFLCs). The comparative analysis of the compounds is done by using various parameters, including thermodynamic, non-linear optical, electrical, atomic charge distribution, and atomic orientations. We use optimization algorithms to look at chemical reactivity, electrical properties, intermolecular interactions, and static hyperpolarizability.
