(Nanowerk News) A need for fast, solution-based processing of organic electronic devices has sparked increased interest in ‘discotic’ or disc-shaped liquid crystals. These molecules, which contain a ...

This paper reviews our recent research with regard to bulk self-assemblers based on well-defined branched building blocks. Branched molecules/polymers have been known to show different physical ...

Liquid crystals have become the quintessential molecular materials of the modern era, used in displays that range from the size of a fingernail to wide-screen televisions. They are both liquid and ...
