Liquid Crystalline Medium

TL;DR: In this article, a liquid-crystalline medium based on a mixture of polar compounds having negative dielectric anisotropy (Δe) was defined for active-matrix display based on the ECB, VA, PS-VA, FFS, PALC or IPS effect.

Optical Amplification of Ligand-Receptor Binding Using Liquid Crystals

TL;DR: This approach to the detection of ligand-receptor binding does not require labeling of the analyte,does not require the use of electroanalytical apparatus, provides a spatial resolution of micrometers, and is sufficiently simple that it may find use in biochemical assays and imaging of spatially resolved chemical libraries.

Refractive indices of liquid crystals for display applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the extended Cauchy model and the four-parameter model for describing the wavelength and temperature effects of liquid crystal (LC) refractive indices.

Liquid crystal medium

TL;DR: In this article, the use of liquid crystal media for electro-optical displays, especially those having active matrix addressing based on the ECB (electrically controlled birefringence) or VA (vertically aligned) mode or similar modes, is described.

Phase transitions in liquid crystals

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of phase transition studies can be found in this article, where the authors identify the essential key concepts and points of difficulty associated with the study of phase transitions and discuss the most widely used experimental techniques for measuring these transition properties.
