چکیده

The first compound capable of forming a bundled-stack discotic columnar liquid crystalline (BSDCLC) phase was designed and synthesized. The unique perylene anhydride inter-stack interaction was found to be the key to the formation of the BSDCLC structure and inter-stack electronic coupling (ISEC).

Molecular structure of the discotic liquid crystalline phase of hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene/oligothiophene hybrid and their charge transport properties.

Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulation, we study the discotic columnar liquid crystalline (LC) phases formed by a new organic compound having hexa-peri-Hexabenzocoronene (HBC) core with six pendant oligothiophene units recently synthesized by Nan Hu et al. [Adv. Mater. 26, 2066 (2014)]. This HBC core based LC phase was shown to have electric field responsive behavior and has important ap...

Self-association and columnar liquid crystalline phase of cationic alkyl-substituted-bipyridine benzenedithiolato gold(III) complexes.

The introduction of a Au(III) ion into a mesogenic core, [M(Bdt)(Cnbpy)](+) (Bdt = 1,2-benzenedithiolato and Cnbpy = 4,4'-di-alkyl-2,2'-bipyridine (n = 13 (4,4'-di-tridecyl-2,2'-bipyridine (C13bpy)) and 8,10 (4,4'-di-(3-octyltridecyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (C8,10bpy)))), leads to the formation of ionic molecular assemblies in crystalline and mesophases. Successive syntheses of precursor complexes, [A...

A case for discotic liquid crystals in molten triglycerides.

To date, essentially only two structural models have been proposed and debated in detail for explaining the liquid state order of triglycerides, and both invoke a form of thermotropic liquid crystalline order in triglyceride melts. These are the paralamellar model of Larsson et al. (J. Am. Oil Chem. Soc. 1992, 69, 835) and the nematic model of Cebula et al. (J. Am. Oil Chem Soc. 1992, 69, 130)....

A computer simulation of model discotic dimers

We set up a model for discotic liquid crystal dimers and study, by means of Monte Carlo simulations, their phase behaviour and self–assembling properties, in comparison with the simpler monomeric case. Each discotic dimer is described by two oblate Gay–Berne ellipsoids connected by a flexible spacer, modelled by a harmonic “spring” of three different lengths. We find that dimerization in genera...

Poster 71 New Discotic Triphenylene Derivatives exhibiting a Cholesteric Blue Phase and Ferroelectric Switching in Columnar Mesophases

Since a very early stage of discotic liquid crystal research, triphenylene derivatives are known to be useful materials for the study of discotic liquid crystals. Recently, their importance as photoconducting materials was recognized [1]. Blue phases had only been observed in binary mixtures [2, 3]. It took over ten years to experimentally verify [4] J. Prost’s prediction of ferroelectricity in...
