The presence of ions in liquid crystals is one of the grand challenges that hinder the
application of liquid crystals in various devices, which include advanced 3-D and flexible …

In this study, we investigated the dielectric properties of the phthalocyanine (Pc)-doped
nematic liquid crystal (NLC) composite structures. 4-Pentyl-4′-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) NLC …

In this research, the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) was doped with varying concentration (0–1
wt%) of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) at room temperature to study the …

Linear supra-molecular liquid crystals, 4-(octyloxy) benzoic acid (8OBA) and 4-(octyloxy)-3-
fluoro benzoic acid (8OBAF), have been synthesized. The structure of these compounds was …

Gold nanorods (GNRs) have a capsule-like structure with different optical properties than
spherical gold nanoparticles due to surface plasmon resonance. Liquid crystals (LCs) are …

We investigated the dielectric losses and the ionic currents in the nematic liquid crystal
(NLC) doped with semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) of CdSe/ZnS core–shell type and …

Polymers for Light-Emitting Devices and Displays provides an in-depth overview of
fabrication methods and unique properties of polymeric semiconductors, and their potential …

The effect of biowaste porous carbon nanoparticles (PCNPs) on the dielectric and electro-
optical properties of nematic liquid crystal (LC) mixture (1823A) of 4-(4-alkyl-cyclohexyl) …

We report the effect of chiral concentration on temperature dependent helical pitch of a chiral
nematic liquid crystal system. The phase behaviour, optical and dielectric properties of …

Nanoparticles embedded in liquid crystals can trap mobile ions and decrease their
concentration. In this paper, we generalize the nanoparticles-based approach and, through …
