Surface anchoring energy temperature dependence

The bistability phenomena in the FLC structures will be considered below.) The results of these two methods coincide with each other to an accuracy of 30%. The anchoring energy of an FLC mixture (ZhK-224) for different conducting surfaces is shown in Table 7.2. The values of Wd, measured according to (7.40), (7.41), were shown to depend linearly on the temperature near the A C phase transition point... 

Recently, we have shown that the supramolecular approach (a non-covalent two-fold extra-ligation in conjunction with Zn-porphyrin chemical dimers and trimers) can be successfully employed to create a variety of multiporphyrin structures capable of the fast effective intra-complex energy migration and photoinduced electron transfer [5]. Following this self-assembly principle we have succeeded to anchor in pyridyl substituted porphyrin molecules on CdSe/ZnS QD surfaces. In this case, CdSe/ZnS QDs show luminescence quenching induced by dynamic and/or static interactions between QD and porphyrins depending critically on sample stability, temperature and solvent polarity [6]. The general focus of this contribution is devoted to demonstrate the...
