Lyotropic liquid crystals exhibit a remarkable range of phases driven by the concentration and temperature of their components, with the biaxial nematic phase representing an especially intriguing ...

In a new study, scientists have shown for the first time that even without additional corrections, the standard GAFF interatomic interaction potential can reproduce an isotropic-nematic phase ...

Shear-induced structural transitions in confined nematic soft interfaces Shear plays a critical role in shaping the topology of liquid crystal director fields.

Crystal Palace scouts at the Under-21 European Championship have been keeping an eye on France's Andy Diouf and Holland's Rav van den Berg.

A tunable metamaterial absorber based on the liquid crystal intended for F frequency band is presented. The proposed absorber was analyzed both numerically and experimentally. The conducted analysis ...

A new technique for the measurement of dielectric constants of nematic liquid-crystal (LC) materials at millimeter-wave frequencies is presented. The proposed method utilizes an electric field to ...

Bournemouth are set to lose many key players this summer but have already identified some exciting targets to fill the void, with work well underway behind the scenes ...

For non-chiral nematic liquid crystal shells, POM is generally used exclusively in transmission mode, since the nematic exhibits no peculiar reflection properties like Bragg reflection.

This study explores the enhancement of dielectric, electro-optical, and dynamic response properties of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) E7 by physical dispersion of carboxyl-functionalized nanodiamonds ...

Fans were full of praise for Andre Onana after the Manchester United goalkeeper produced a superb double save against Crystal Palace.

Specific heats of nematic, smectic, and cholesteric liquid crystals by differential scanning calorimetry Edward M. Barrall II , Roger Stephen Porter , and Julian Frank Johnson ...
