Chiral ferronematic liquid crystals: a physico-chemical analysis of phase transitions and induced helical twisting
K. G. Nazarenko, N. A. Kasian, S. S. Minenko +4
A possibility was assessed to modify physico-chemical properties of ferronematic mixtures by introducing additional mesogenic and non-mesogenic components. The mixture, consisting…
Anomalous Brownian motion of colloidal particle in a nematic environment: effect of the director fluctuations
T. Turiv, A. Brodin, V. Nazarenko
As recently reported [Turiv T. et al., Science, 2013, Vol. 342, 1351], fluctuations in the orientation of the liquid crystal (LC) director can transfer momentum from the LC to a co…
Effect of collective molecular reorientations on Brownian motion of colloids in nematic liquid crystal
Taras Turiv, Israel Lazo, Alexander Brodin +4
In the simplest realization of Brownian motion, a colloidal sphere moves randomly in an isotropic fluid; its mean squared displacement (MSD) grows linearly with time . Br…
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…
Surface alignment and anchoring transitions in nematic lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal
V. G. Nazarenko, O. P. Boiko, H. -S. Park +5
The surface alignment of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) can be not only planar (tangential) but also homeotropic, with self-assembled aggregates perpendicular to the s…
Ordered droplet structures at the liquid crystal surface and elastic-capillary colloidal interactions
I. I. Smalyukh, S. Chernyshuk, B. I. Lev +4
We demonstrate a variety of ordered patterns, including hexagonal structures and chains, formed by colloidal particles (droplets) at the free surface of a nematic liquid crystal (L…
