A new luminescent ionic liquid crystal (ILC) with a positive charge in the aromatic central
core and two hydrophobic alkyl chains at the ends, called Ipz, has been synthesized and its …

A new luminescent ionic liquid crystal, called Ipz-2, has been synthesised and its
mesophase behaviour and also at the air–liquid interface has been studied and compared …

The photophysical properties of ionic liquid crystals based on poly (amidoamine){PAMAM}
and poly (propyleneimine)(PPI) dendrimers were examined both in solutions and in thin …

Langmuir films of [C18mim][NTf2] ionic liquid exhibited, for the first time, the reversible
formation of crystalline-like structures at the surface of water, compatible with the formation …

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)-active ionic liquid crystals (ILCs) featuring
excitation wavelength-dependent (Ex-De) photoluminescence have significant application …

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is the generation of light triggered by an electrochemical
reaction. ECL has been extensively studied in solvent‐based electrolytes, but there is a lack …

We demonstrate that halogen bonding (XB) can offer a novel approach for the construction
of photoresponsive ionic liquid crystals. In particular, we assembled two new …

We report a detailed photophysical study of 1-dodecyl-4-[5-(4-dodecyloxyphenyl)-1, 3, 4-
oxadiazole-2-yl] pyridinium bromide (454Do), a cationic amphiphile that behaves as a …

Three amphiphilic imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs), 1-[n-(N-carbazole) alkyl]-3-
methylimidazolium bromide [carbazoleC n mim] Br (n= 6, 10, and 12), that incorporate a …

Ionic liquid crystals have emerged as a new class of functional soft materials in the last two
decades, and they exhibit synergistic characteristics of ionic liquids and liquid crystals such …
