Nanoparticle-Induced Property Changes in Nematic Liquid Crystals

Nanoparticle-Induced Property Changes in Nematic Liquid Crystals

Doping liquid crystals with nanoparticles is a widely accepted method to enhance liquid crystal’s intrinsic properties. In this study, a quick and reliable method to characterise such colloidal suspensions using an optical multi-parameter analyser, a cross-polarised intensity measurement-based devic...
