Journal ArticleDOI
Thermotropic uniaxial and biaxial nematic and smectic phases in bent-core mesogens.
TL;DR: Optical polarizing microscopy and synchrotron X-ray scattering studies of two azo substituted achiral bent-core mesogens reveal the existence of the thermotropic uniaxial and biaXial nematic and three smectic phases at different temperatures in these single component small molecule systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Assembly of Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystal Sunset Yellow and Effects of Ionic Additives
Heung-Shik Park,Shin-Woong Kang,Luana Tortora,Yuriy A. Nastishin,Daniele Finotello,Satyendra Kumar,Oleg D. Lavrentovich +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the aggregates of LCLCs can be more complex than simple rods and contain "stacking faults" such as junctions with a shift of neighboring molecules, 3-fold junctions, etc.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nature-inspired light-harvesting liquid crystalline porphyrins for organic photovoltaics
Lanfang Li,Shin-Woong Kang,John Harden,Qingjiang Sun,Xiaoli Zhou,Liming Dai,Antal Jakli,Satyendra Kumar,Quan Li +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new class of nanoscale light harvesting discotic liquid crystalline porphyrins, with the same basic structure of the best photoreceptor in nature (chlorophyll), was synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Assembly of Porphyrin and Fullerene Supramolecular Complex into Highly Ordered Nanostructure by Simple Thermal Annealing
TL;DR: In this paper, the highly ordered nanostructured thin film consisting of the liquid crystalline porphyrin−fullerene blend was prepared by simple thermal annealing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sorption and Fractionation of a Peat Derived Humic Acid by Kaolinite, Montmorillonite, and Goethite
TL;DR: In this article, the unadsorbed fractionation behavior of humic acid upon sorption on mineral surfaces with varying surface properties was determined by elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFT), and solid state 13C NMR results.
