Research Abstract |
High order nanostructures liquid crystals with high chirality (for example, blue phases) are exquisitely sensitive to chirality, their formation mechanism are not clear. In order to understand how chirality is transferred from chiral molecules to liquid crystal molecules efficiently and effectively, chiral molecular structures were changed. The critically interesting results such as stabilization and improved properties of blue phases are expected to be next generation display devices and liquid crystal phase transitions by external stimuli were obtained by changing chiral molecular structures.
