Nanostructure Templating in Inorganic Solids with Organic Lyotropic Liquid Crystals
Various nanoscale semiconducting superlattices have been generated by direct templating in a lyotropic organic liquid crystal. These include superlattices of CdS, CdSe, and ZnS, templated in a liquid crystal formed by oligoethylene oxide oleyl ether amphiphiles and water. The semiconductor growth process copied the symmetry and characteristic dimensions of the original mesophase by avoiding gro...
متن کاملAnomalous phase sequences in lyotropic liquid crystals.
We present a coarse-grained model in order to describe the unusual sequence of mesophases observed in aqueous solutions of nonionic lipids, such as monoolein. The lipid molecules are modeled as a rigid head and a flexible Gaussian tail, and water is treated explicitly. A key component of the model is thermally reversible hydrogen bonding between the lipid head and water resulting in changes in ...
متن کاملInvestigation into the temperature dependence of isotropic- nematic phase transition of Gay- Berne liquid crystals
Density functional approach was used to study the isotropic- nematic (I-N) transition and calculate the values of freezing parameters of the Gay- Berne liquid crystal model. New direct and pair correlation functions of a molecular fluid with Gay- Berne pair potential were used. These new functions were used in density functional theory as input to calculate the isotropic- nematic transition den...
متن کاملPhase transitions in lyotropic colloidal and polymer liquid crystals
An overview is given of theory and experiments on liquid crystal phases which appear in solutions of elongated colloidal particles or stiff polymers. The Onsager (1949) virial theory for the isotropic-nematic transition of thin rodlike particles is treated comprehensively along with extensions to polydisperse solutions and soft interactions. Computer simulations of liquid crystal phases in hard...
متن کاملStripe magnetic domains and lyotropic liquid crystals
A recent analogy between stripe domain structures of uniaxial magnetic garnet films and smectic liquid crystals is extended, using general energetic and symmetry considerations. The analogy is furthermore strengthened by remarking that the growth of magnetized stripes in a magnetic film is similar to the swelling of lyotropic smectic liquid crystals occurring under changes of water or oil conce...
