Journal ArticleDOI
Discotic liquid crystals 45 years later. Dendronized discs and crowns increase liquid crystal complexity to columnar from spheres, cubic Frank-Kasper, liquid quasicrystals and memory-effect induced columnar-bundles
Virgil Percec,Dipankar Sahoo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a brief review article dedicated to the 45th anniversary of the discovery of discotic liquid crystals and to the memory of Professor Sivaramakrishna Chandrasekhar, a modest, respectful and great scientist.

Journal ArticleDOI
Nematic, smectic and columnar phases of main‐chain liquid crystal polyethers
TL;DR: In this paper, a number of interesting thermotropic mesophases and transitions occur in main-chain polyethers and copolyethers based on aliphatic spacers and various semi-flexible mesogens of the general 1-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(2-R-4-hydroxymhenyl)ethane (RBPE) or 1-( 4'-hydroxybiphenyl-4]-4-yl)propane (TPP) type.
Journal ArticleDOI
