Nematic and smectic mesophase from calamitic bisazobenzene liquid crystal: synthesis and characterization of 1- methoxyhexyloxy-4'-(4-phenylazo) azobenzene hybrid molecule
A new hybrid calamitic liquid crystal material with rod-shape bisazobenzene moieties as a core has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The mesomorphic properties were investigated by differential scanning colorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy and X-Ray diffraction. The...
