The electro-optic and dielectric properties of barium titanate, BaTiO 3, and nanoparticle (NP)
doped nematic and ferroelectric liquid crystal materials were examined with respect to …

The changes in physical properties obtained by dispersing hydrophilic carboxylated
graphene quantum dots (GQDs,< 10 nm), which are non-toxic, biocompatible, and eco …

Graphene oxide (GO) flakes of different sizes were prepared and dispersed in isotropic and
nematic (anisotropic) fluid media. The dielectric relaxation behaviour of GO-dispersions was …

Liquid crystals are often identified with the development of the flat panel television and
computer screens that we all use on a daily basis. Despite their enormous success in this …
