A liquid crystal is a substance that behaves like a liquid but has a structure like a crystal. You can look up the phases of liquid crystals on wiki.

Liquid crystals is a jargon term for organic substances that react to electrical forces in ways that make them somewhat like crystals - they are not actually crystals (as in rhomboids of salt) and the part that does something is not actually liquid but is in liquid.
