Continuous Paranematic-to-Nematic Ordering Transitions of Liquid Crystals in Tubular Silica Nanochannels
Andriy V. Kityk, Matthias Wolff, Klaus Knorr +3
The optical birefringence of rod-like nematogens (7CB, 8CB), imbibed in parallel silica channels with 10 nm diameter and 300 micrometer length, is measured and compared to the ther…
Incoherent Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Study of Molecular dynamics of 4-n-cyano-4'-octylbiphenyl
Ronan Lefort, Denis Morineau, Régis Guégan +4
We report incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering experiments on the thermotropic liquid crystal 4-n-cyano-4'-octylbiphenyl. The combination of time-of-flight and backscattering…
Rich polymorphism of a rod-like liquid crystal (8CB) confined in two types of unidirectional nanopores
Régis Guégan, Denis Morineau, Ronan Lefort +5
We present a neutron and X-rays scattering study of the phase transitions of 4-n-octyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) confined in unidirectional nanopores of porous alumina and porous sili…
