Toroidal nuclei of columnar lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals coexisting with isotropic phase
Runa Koizumi, Dmitry Golovaty, Ali Alqarni +4
Nuclei of ordered materials emerging from the isotropic state usually show a shape topologically equivalent to a sphere; the well-known examples are crystals and nematic liquid cry…
Liquid crystal phases with unusual structures and physical properties formed by acute-angle bent-core molecules
Bing-Xiang Li, Yuriy A. Nastishin, Hao Wang +7
Liquid crystals formed by acute-angle bent-core (ABC) molecules with a 1,7 naphthalene central core show an intriguing phase behavior with the nematic phase accompanied by poorly u…
Elastic and viscous properties of nematic dimer CB7CB
Greta Babakhanova, Zeinab Parsouzi, Sathyanarayana Paladugu +5
We present a comprehensive set of measurements of optical, dielectric, diamagnetic, elastic and viscous properties in the nematic (N) phase formed by a liquid crystalline dimer. Th…
Comparative analysis of anisotropic material properties of uniaxial nematics formed by flexible dimers and rod-like monomers
Greta Cukrov, Youssef Mosaddeghian Golestani, Jie Xiang +5
We report temperature dependencies of material properties such as dielectric anisotropy, birefringence, splay (K11), twist (K22), and bend (K33) elastic constants of the uniaxial n…
Electro-Optic Effects in Colloidal Dispersion of Metal Nano-Rods in Dielectric Fluid
Andrii B. Golovin, Jie Xiang, Heung-Shik ParkLuana Tortora +3
In modern transformation optics, one explores metamaterials with properties that vary from point to point in space and time, suitable for applications in devices such as an "optica…
Lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal semiconductors for water-solution processable organic electronics
V. G. Nazarenko, O. P. Boiko, M. I. Anisimov +4
We propose lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) as a distinct class of materials for organic electronics. In water, the chromonic molecules stack on top of each other into e…
