Colloidal liquid crystals in square confinement: isotropic, nematic and smectic phases

Colloidal liquid crystals in square confinement: isotropic, nematic and smectic phases

We report on the confinement of colloidal liquid crystals in three dimensional chambers with a square footprint. To this end we use colloidal silica rods and exploit their relatively large density difference with respect to the dispersing solvent to study isotropic, nematic and smectic phases confin...
