Nemato-elasticity of hybrid molecular-colloidal liquid crystals
B. Senyuk, H. Mundoor, I. I. Smalyukh +1
Colloidal rods immersed in a thermotropic liquid-crystalline solvent are at the basis of so-called hybrid liquid crystals which are characterized by tunable nematic fluidity with s…
Anisotropic electrostatic screening of charged colloids in nematic solvents
Jeffrey C. Everts, Bohdan Senyuk, Haridas Mundoor +2
The physical behaviour of anisotropic charged colloids is determined by their material dielectric anisotropy, affecting colloidal self-assembly, biological function and even out-of…
Self-organized nonlinear gratings for ultrafast nanophotonics
Daniel D. Hickstein, David R. Carlson, Haridas Mundoor +7
Modern nonlinear optical materials allow light of one wavelength be efficiently converted into light at another wavelength. However, designing nonlinear optical materials to operat…
Liquid crystal self-assembly of upconversion nanorods enriched by depletion forces for mesostructured material preparation
Yong Xie, Yuanyuan Li, Guoqing Wei +4
Monodisperse rod-like colloidal particles are known for spontaneously forming both nematic and smectic liquid crystal phases, but their self-assembly was typically exploited from t…
Tuning and Switching a Plasmonic Quantum Dot Sandwich in a Nematic Line Defect
Haridas Mundoor, Ghadah. H. Sheetah, Sungoh Park +3
We study the quantum-mechanical effects arising in a single semiconductor core/shell quantum dot controllably sandwiched between two plasmonic nanorods. Control over the position a…
Electric Switching of Fluorescence Decay in Gold-Silica-Dye Nematic Nanocolloids Mediated by Surface Plasmons
Li Jiang, Haridas Mundoor, Qingkun Liu +1
Tunable composite materials with interesting physical behavior can be designed through integrating unique optical properties of solid nanostructures with the facile responses of so…
