Electric-field induced shape transition of nematic tactoids
Luuk Metselaar, Ivan Dozov, Krassimira Antonova +4
The occurrence of new textures of liquid crystals is an important factor in tuning their optical and photonics properties. Here, we show, both experimentally and by numerical compu…
Hybrid Nanocomposites with Tunable Alignment of the Magnetic Nanorod Filler
Fabien Perineau, Céline Rosticher, Laurence Rozes +6
For many important applications, the performance of polymer-anisotropic particle nanocomposite materials strongly depends on the orientation of the nanoparticles. Using the very pe…
Magnetic Nanorods Confined in a Lamellar Lyotropic Phase
Keevin Béneut, Doru Constantin, Patrick Davidson +2
The dilute lamellar phase of the nonionic surfactant CEO was doped with goethite (iron oxide) nanorods up to a fraction of 5 vol. %. The interaction between the inclusio…
Connectivity of the Hexagonal, Cubic, and Isotropic Phases of the CEO/HO Lyotropic Mixture Investigated by Tracer Diffusion and X-ray Scattering
Doru Constantin, Patrick Oswald, Marianne Impéror-Clerc +2
The connectivity of the hydrophobic medium in the nonionic binary system CEO/HO is studied by monitoring the diffusion constants of tracer molecules at the transitio…
Slow dynamics of a colloidal lamellar phase
Doru Constantin, Patrick Davidson, Éric Freyssingeas +1
We used x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy to study the dynamics in the lamellar phase of a platelet suspension as a function of the particle concentration. We measured the coll…
Lyotropic Lamellar Phase Doped with a Nematic Phase of Magnetic Nanorods
Doru Constantin, Patrick Davidson, Corinne Chanéac
We report the elaboration of a hybrid mesophase combining the lamellar order of a lyotropic system of nonionic surfactant and the nematic order of a concentrated solution of inorga…
