Polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs), comprised of submicron-sized LC droplets
embedded in a continuous polymer matrix, have been the subject of interest for scientists …

The fabrication and properties of polymer network–stabilized liquid crystals, formed by
polymerization of a small amount of a bifunctional photoreactive monomer dissolved in a …

Cholesteric liquid-crystalline states of matter are abundant in nature: atherosclerosis,
arthropod cuticles,, condensed phases of DNA, plant cell walls,, human compact bone …

CdSe hollow spherical assemblies composed of 5 nm nanoparticles have been synthesized
sonochemically. During the process, amorphous Cd (OH) 2, which acts as the in‐situ …

Multicomponent systems based on liquid crystals are of great interest both in the field of
scientific research and in the field of practical application. To date, one of the most studied …

A single-layer polymer stabilized liquid crystal (PSLC) film reflecting both right-and left-
circularly polarized light has been developed by a wash-out/refill method. The PSLC film …

Polymer stabilised liquid crystals describe systems in which a polymer network is formed
within an anisotropic liquid crystal matrix. During the polymerisation process a bi-continuous …

We study phase separation from a nematic liquid crystal with spatially nonuniform director
gradients. Particles of a phase-separated component, which is either an isotropic fluid …

A liquid crystalline epoxide was synthesized and its curing reactivity was compared with that
of the conventional epoxy monomers. By utilizing the difference in curing reactivity between …

In this work, cadmium selenide quantum dots (CdSe QDs)-doped polymer stabilized
cholesteric liquid crystals composites (PSCLC) are proposed for low-power light shutters …
