Modifying Thermal Switchability of Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles by Alkyl Ligands Variation

Modifying Thermal Switchability of Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles by Alkyl Ligands Variation

By coating plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) with thermally responsive liquid crystals (LCs) it is possible to prepare reversibly reconfigurable plasmonic nanomaterials with prospective applications in optoelectronic devices. However, simple and versatile methods to precisely tailor properties of liquid...
