With the introduction of π-conjugated systems in electronic devices and the dream to arrive
at molecular electronics based on these systems, the detailed understanding of the …

The hierarchical self-assembly of disc-shaped molecules leads to the formation of discotic
liquid crystals. These materials are of fundamental importance not only as models for the …

Fundamentally important as models for the study of energy and charge migration in self-
organized systems, discotic liquid crystals find functional application as one-dimensional …

Disc-shaped objects can be induced to form columnar assemblies whether their scale is
tens of Angstroms (molecular), tens of nanometers (macromolecular or supramolecular) …

Triphenylene-based discotic liquid crystals, which have already been used commercially in
phase compensation films to improve the viewing angle of liquid crystal display devices …

Liquid crystals are ordered soft materials formed by self‐organized molecules and can
potentially be used as new functional materials for electron‐, ion‐or molecular‐transport; …

This study describes the synthesis, liquid crystal and photophysical properties of fluorescent
biscyanovinyl diphenylcarbazole-based hexacatenars. The mesomorphic and …

We report the self-assembly of stable nanoscale coordination polymers (NCPs), which
exhibit temperature-controlled guest encapsulation and release, as well as an efficient light …

Novel hybrid triphenylene-carbosiloxane liquid crystalline monomers and star-shaped
oligomers have been synthesized and their thermal behavior and liquid-crystalline …

New triphenylene derivatives 3 and 5, synthesized using a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling
protocol and by a click reaction respectively, serve as potent chemosensors for various …
