DOI: 10.1039/d2ra01020h
Abstract: Although smectite-type clays are used as heterogeneous media for photofunctional guest molecules, the guest species are limited to cationic or polar molecules because of the intrinsic negative electric charges of clay particles. Nevertheless, in this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/02678292.2017.1280620
Abstract: ABSTRACT A new series of azobenezene liquid crystals (LCs) was designed and synthesised by known and straightforward methods. The central connecting cores of the molecules varied viz., benzene/naphthalene/biphenyl. The molecular structures were confirmed by infrared,… read more here.
