Interfacial Adsorbtion from Nematic Mixtures
The aim is to determine the amount of absorbtion of the one component of a mixture at the nemtic/air interface using neutron reflection. The host material in the mixture will be... -
Adsorbtion from nematic mixtures
The aim is to measure the preferential adsorption of one component in a nematic mixture. The base is 4-pentyl 4¿- cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and it is doped with 4-pentyl 4¿-... -
Confinement Effects on Fluorinated Liquid Crystal Adsorption
The adsorption of a liquid crystal dopant to a surface can have a significant impact on its properties such as electro-optic response and lubrication. The interesting adsorption... -
Fluorination Effects at Liquid Crystal Surfaces
The adsorption of a liquid crystal dopant to a surface can have a significant impact on its properties such as electro-optic response and lubrication. Both the interesting... -
Adsorbtion from nematic mixtures: bulk characterization
The aim is to measure any tendency towards phase separation in a nematic mixture to complement an adsorption study on the same mixture. The base is 4-pentyl 4¿- cyanobiphenyl...
