The Effect of the Degree of Polymerization and Polymer Composition on the Temperature Responsiveness of Cholesteric Semi-Interpenetrating Networks

Cholesteric liquid crystal oligomers and polymers are promising materials for creating materials and devices with stimuli-responsive structural color, and the cholesteric to smectic pre-transition effect is of particular interest as it leads to a strong redshift in the reflected color upon cooling....
