چکیده
We present luminescent liquid-crystalline neodymium(III) complexes that contain three β-diketonate ligands and a mesogenic 1,10-phenanthroline ligand. Mesomorphism, including a nematic phase--very rare in lanthanide systems--is driven by the highly anisometric phenanthroline.

Nematic caps on colloidal particles in a nematogenic liquid under an electric field.
We examine the localized nematic regions (caps) on spherical colloidal particles suspended in a nematogenic liquid in the isotropic phase in the bulk by solving the Poisson equation with an orientation-dependent dielectric tensor. These caps appear and grow with an increasing applied electric field. We assume positive dielectric anisotropy of the nematogenic liquid and a high dielectric constan...
متن کاملThermotropic lanthanidomesogens.
Due to their high and variable coordination numbers leading to poorly predictable three-dimensional coordination spheres, the trivalent lanthanide metal ions are challenging molecular objects for introduction into thermotropic liquid crystals. Conversely, their predictive electronic, optical and magnetic metal-centred properties make them particularly attractive for being incorporated into swit...
متن کاملEncoding calamitic mesomorphism in thermotropic lanthanidomesogens.
Peripheral cyanobiphenyl dendrimers impose a microphase organization compatible with smectic mesomorphism, in which the bulky nine-coordinate lanthanide core is located between the decoupled mesogenic sublayers made up of parallel cyanobiphenyl groups.
متن کاملA new class of thermotropic lanthanidomesogens: Eu(III) nitrate complexes with mesogenic 4-pyridone ligands.
A new class of thermotropic lanthanidomesogens has been designed and prepared. They are based on 4-pyridone ligands that possess mesogenic cyanobiphenyl groups attached to the 4-pyridone unit via a flexible long alkyl spacer and show a very high thermal stability (decomposition temperatures near 300 °C). Depending on the alkyl length spacer, these complexes exhibit a SmA phase with transition t...
متن کاملPhase behavior of a hard sphere Maier-Saupe nematogenic system in three dimensions.
We present a detailed computer simulation and integral equation study of the phase behavior of a nematogenic system composed of hard spheres with embedded three-dimensional Maier-Saupe spins. For this well-known system, we map the gas-liquid equilibrium, which is coupled to a first-order isotropic-nematic transition. The anisotropic integral equation theory is found to yield excellent agreement...
