Nanoparticle-induced widening of the temperature range of liquid-crystalline blue phases

TL;DR: Systematic high-resolution calorimetric studies reveal thatblue phase III is effectively stabilized in a wide temperature range by mixing surface-functionalized nanoparticles with chiral liquid crystals, yielding a robust method to stabilize blue phases, especially blue phase III.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigations of phase transitions in liquid crystals by means of adiabatic scanning calorimetry

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution adiabatic scanning calorimetric technique has been proposed to distinguish between first-order and second-order phase transitions in addition to rendering highresolution information on fluctuations-induced pretransitional specific heat capacity behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of magnetic nanoparticles with different surface coating on the phase transitions of octylcyanobiphenyl liquid crystal.

TL;DR: The impact of magnetic nanoparticles with different surface coating upon the isotropic-to-nematic and nematic- to-smectic- A phase transitions of the liquid crystal octylcyanobiphenyl is explored by means of high-resolution adiabatic scanning calorimetry, and a shrinkage of the nematic range is observed.
