dc.description.abstract | A liquid crystal is state of matter that simultaneously displays properties of
both a liquid and a solid. Liquid crystals have applications in liquid crystal
displays (LCDs) and optical imaging technology. Liquid crystals or
“mesogens” are created when molecules have both core (ex. aromatic) and
chain (ex. alkyl group) structures. This allows the molecule to form a semiordered
phase in between a solid and a liquid. In this experiment, liquid
crystallinity was induced thermally to form rod-like semi-ordered phases. | en |
