TITLE: Study of Molecular Polarizabilities and Orientational Order Parameter in the Nematic Phase of 6.O12O.6 and 7.O12O.7 AUTHORS: Parameswara Rao Alapati, D. Bhuyan, D. Madhavi Latha, P.

The researcher outlines the applications of liquid crystal materials in the field of visualisation outside of displays in recent years. These liquid crystal-based devices are capable of changing ...

The identification of a twisted-bend nematic liquid crystal within a polymer is a notable finding in liquid crystal science.

New research combines liquid crystals with metallic metasurfaces in a two-layer design, enabling electrically and thermally switchable displays and security features with superior color control.

Müller et al., (2002) investigated the surface plasmon splitting of a gold nanoparticle coated with a nematic liquid crystal, finding that the surface plasmon resonance frequency in the scattering ...

Researchers have developed a new spray deposition technique for creating cholesteric liquid crystal elastomer coatings with vivid colors and mechanochromic properties, suitable for large-scale ...

Experimental evidence of an optical shutter in cholesteric phase of a double hydrogen bonded liquid crystal V.N. Vijayakumar; M.L.N. Madhu Mohan * Liquid Crystal Research Laboratory (LCRL), Bannari ...

A nematic display with three electrodes and double fringing fields is proposed. Both top and bottom substrates have pixel and common electrodes to generate complementary fringing fields for achieving ...

Liquid crystal is a state of matter that exhibits properties of both liquid and solid. It can flow like a liquid, while its constituent molecules are aligned as in a solid. Liquid crystal is ...

Created by researchers at MIT, FibeRobo is a cheap, programmable, shape-changing smart fiber reliant on a liquid crystal elastomer (LCE).

We discovered that mixtures of anil nematic liquid crystal compounds resulted in materials that had a wide nematic range, making possible practical electronic display devices. To my knowledge, it ...

Liquid crystal polarization gratings (LCPGs) are diffractive elements that provide near-100% diffraction for circularly polarized light. When layered with thin polarization-controlling liquid crystal ...
