Thermotropic Orientational Order of Discotic Liquid Crystals in Nanochannels: An Optical Polarimetry Study and a Landau-de Gennes Analysis
Andriy V. Kityk, Mark Busch, Daniel Rau +10
Optical polarimetry measurements of the orientational order of a discotic liquid crystal based on a pyrene derivative and confined in parallel-aligned nanochannels of monolithic me…

Paranematic-to-nematic ordering of a binary mixture of rod-like liquid crystals confined in cylindrical nanochannels
Sylwia Calus, Beata Jablonska, Mark Busch +3
We explore the optical birefringence of the nematic binary mixtures 6CB7CB () imbibed into parallel-aligned nanochannels of mesoporous alumina and silica…

Influence of nano confinement on nematic liquid crystals
Sylwia Calus, Daniel Rau, Patrick Huber +1
We explore the nematic ordering of the rod-like liquid crystals 5CB and 6CB, embedded into parallel-aligned nanochannels in mesoporous silicon and silica membranes as a function of…
