...The layered crystals are believed to be quantitatively delaminated into bilayers via cation exchange of interlayer K+ ions for propylammonium cations, which makes the thickness of the nanosheets monodisperse (Saupe et al., 2000; Miyamoto et al., 2002)....

...After these corrections, the absolute scattering intensity was obtained by using a pre-calibrated secondary standard of irradiated aluminium (Schelten & Hendricks, 1975; Russell et al., 1988)....

...The layered crystal is easily delaminated into unit layers and the exfoliated [Nb6O17] 4 sheets (hereafter called ‘nanosheets’) have an outstanding structural feature (Miyamoto et al., 2002; Miyamoto & Nakato, 2004)....

...The huge nanosheets are ordered to form a liquid-crystalline phase, which is basically explained by Onsager’s theory (Onsager, 1949), as evidenced by observation between crossed polarizers (Miyamoto & Nakato, 2004)....
