Abstract: ABSTRACT The structural evolution with the self-assembly and self-alignment progress of the typical Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystals (LCLCs) molecules, Sunset Yellow FCF (SSY), was studied by time-resolved grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GI-WAXS). It was revealed… read more here.

Abstract: We investigate how chiral dopants affect the chiral symmetry breaking of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) focusing on the double-twist (DT) director configurations in a cylindrical capillary. LCLCs of unusual elastic properties tend to exhibit… read more here.
