Ordered interfaces for dual easy axes in liquid crystals

Emmanuelle Lacaze, A Apicella, M De Santo +4

Using nCB films adsorbed on MoS 2 substrates studied by x-ray diffraction, optical microscopy and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, we demonstrate that ordered interfaces with well-de…

Structure of smectic defect cores: an X-ray study of 8CB liquid crystal ultra-thin films

Jean-Philippe Michel, Emmanuelle Lacaze, Michel Goldmann +3

We study the structure of very thin liquid crystal films frustrated by antagonistic anchorings in the smectic phase. In a cylindrical geometry, the structure is dominated by the de…

A novel approach to the synthesis of nanostructured metal-organic films: X-ray radiolysis of silver ions using a Langmuir monolayer as a template

Francois Muller, Philippe Fontaine, Samy Remita +3

An application of the radiolysis method using X-ray synchrotron beam is developed as a novel approach to the synthesis of metal-organic films with controlled shapes and thickness.…

Pairing evidence of 8CB molecules adsorbed on MoS2: Influence of 2D commensurability on the intralamellar structure

E. Lacaze, M. Alba, M. Goldmann +2

By combining X-ray diffraction studies under grazing incidence (GIXD) and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) measurements, we have precisely determined the structure of 8CB molecu…

Microscopic measurement of the linear compressibilities of two-dimensional fatty acid mesophases

C. Fradin, J. Daillant, A. Braslau +3

The linear compressibility of two-dimensional fatty acid mesophases has determined by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction. Surface pressure vs molecular area isotherms were reconst…
