Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical conductivity and dielectric constant measurements of liquid crystal–gold nanoparticle composites
S. Krishna Prasad,K. L. Sandhya,Geetha G. Nair,Uma S. Hiremath,Channabasaveshwar V. Yelamaggad,Srinivasan Sampath +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of the anisotropic electrical conductivity of liquid crystal-gold nanoparticle (LC-GNP) composites consisting of a commercially available room temperature nematic compound doped with alkylthiol-capped GNPs has been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Low‐Molar‐Mass, Monodispersive, Bent‐Rod Dimer Exhibiting Biaxial Nematic and Smectic A Phases
Channabasaveshwar V. Yelamaggad,Subbarao Krishna Prasad,Geetha G. Nair,Indudhara Swamy Shashikala,Doddamane S. Shankar Rao,Chetan V. Lobo,S. Chandrasekhar +6 more
TL;DR: A "peelable banana" is formed when a bent-core molecule is linked to a rodlike mesogen through a flexible aliphatic spacer in this novel low-molar-mass organic system, which displays a transition from a biaxial nematic (N b ) phase to a bIAxial smectic A phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid crystal fibers of bent-core molecules.
TL;DR: It is shown that the bent-shaped molecules, which have delicate chirality and polarity properties, also have very unusual rheological features, such as the formation of stable fluid fibers and bridges under electric fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence of a first-order smectic-A-smectic-C transition and its approach to tricritical behavior.
B. R. Ratna,Ranganathan Shashidhar,Geetha G. Nair,S. Krishna Prasad,Christian Bahr,Gerd Heppke +5 more
TL;DR: Presented at the 1st international symposium on ferroelectric liquid Crystals, held in 1987 at Archon, Bordeaux.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic Orthogonal Switching of a Thermoresponsive Self-Organized Helical Superstructure
Lingli Zhang,Ling Wang,Uma S. Hiremath,Hari Krishna Bisoyi,Geetha G. Nair,Channabasaveshwar V. Yelamaggad,Augustine Urbas,Timothy J. Bunning,Quan Li +8 more
TL;DR: The ability to reversibly switch the cholesteric gartings along perpendicular directions by appropriately adjusting temperature and electric field strength could facilitate their applications in 2D beam steering, spectrum scanning, optoelectronics and beyond.
