To improve the compatibility of GNPs in LC host, both of the simple n-alkyl thiol and LC/mesogen molecules are used simultaneously to form mixed mono-layer. For example, nematic cyanobiphenyl end-functionalized alkylene thiol covered GNPs and its mixing with n-alkyl thiols (n = 6, 12) in two cyanobiphenyl nematic LC hosts (5CB and 8CB) were investigated [60]. By adding small quantities of alkyl thiolate-capped GNPs there was effectively reversed nematic LC orientation which further showed opto-electronic responses [61]. Recently,... [Pg.112]

The dimer model proposed by Wilson [83] was found not to exhibit a nematic phase but smectic A and B phases and so, although semi-realistic features are included, the model is not able to reproduce the behaviour of real dimers such as the a,co-bis(4 -cyanobiphenyl-4-yloxy) [87], which exhibit nematic phases, although liquid crystal dimers exhibiting smectic phases are also known [88]. In these simulations, the GB-GB interaction appears to be too strong and so the system forms a smectic phase in which the GB and LJ units... [Pg.117]

The first report on the liquid crystalline properties of these compounds was published by Gray and Mosley [44] in 1976. The series of 4 -n-alkyl-4-cyanobiphenyls (CBn) have been widely studied by different methods due to their readily accessible nematic ranges around room temperature. The compounds have the phase sequences crystal-nematic-isotropic for CBS, CBIO, and monotropic nematic for CBS, CB4 crystal-smectic A-nematic-isotropic for CB9 crystal-smectic A-isotropic for CBll. The lower homologous CB2 is nonmesogenic. The general chemical structure of the compounds CBn is presented in Fig. 1. [Pg.142]

One alternative approach is to use photoisomerisable chiral compounds where the E and Z isomers have different helical twisting powers, e.g. menthone derivatives. By incorporating co-polymers, prepared from menthone containing monomers and cyano esters (5.5), as dopants into nematic LC mixtures materials, e.g. a mixture of cyanobiphenyls and cyanoterphenyls (E7 available from Merck), colour change can be effected by irradiating with UV light (365 nm). The colour obtained is dependent... [Pg.317]

Sensitized for blue-green or red light, photoconductive polyimides and liquid crystal mixtures of cyanobiphenyls and azoxybenzene have been used in spatial light modulators [255-261]. Modulation procedure was achieved by means of the electrically controlled birefringence, optical activity, cholesteric-nematic phase transition, dynamic scattering and light scattering in polymer-dispersed liquid crystals. [Pg.49]

Some important observations, which should apply de facto to many nematic systems containing dispersed nanoparticles, particularly those with metal or semiconductor cores, were reported in 2006 by Prasad et al. [297]. The authors found that gold nanoparticles stabilized with dodecanethiol decreased the isotropic to nematic phase transition of 4-pentyl-4 -cyanobiphenyl (5CB) almost linearly with increasing nanoparticle concentration (x p) and increased the overall conductivity of these mixtures by about two orders of magnitude. However, the anisotropy of the electric conductivity (Act = [Pg.349]

In 2003, Sugimoto and Kanie published what appears to be the first claim on the formation of nematic-like one-dimensional ordering in liquid crystal-nanoparticle hybrid materials. Different shapes of Ti02 nanoparticles were hybridized with two structurally different rod-like liquid crystal amines (one based on a cyanobiphenyl and a second with a fluorinated cyclohexylbiphenyl core), but only the combination of spindle-like Ti02 nanorods (with an aspect ratio greater than 10) with the... [Pg.371]

The nematic LC is the original eutectic mixture of 35% (weight %) 4 (m-octyl oxy)-4-cyanobiphenyl (80CB) and 65% 4/-(n-pentyl)-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB). The sample is doped with perylene and 2% (mol %) of NIAC, which is acrylate monomer containing the easily reduced l,4 5,8-naphthalenediimide moiety (see Scheme 3). Finally, 0.5% (mol %) of benzoin methyl ether (BME) is added to photoinitiate polymerization of the NIAC. [Pg.343]
