Nematic calamitic bisazobenzene liquid crystal: synthesis and mesomorphic properties of 1-methoxybutyloxy-4`-(4-phenylazo)azobenzene
A new 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 calorimetry and polarizing optical microscopy. The rod-shaped molecule 1- met...
