Abstract: Self-assembly of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) is invaluable for the development of sustainable optics and photonics. However, the functional failure of CNC-derived materials in humid or liquid environments inevitably impairs their development in biomedicine, membrane separation,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.0c05785
Abstract: Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) can spontaneously assemble into chiral nematic films capable of reflecting circularly polarized light in the visible range. As many other photonic materials obtained by bottom-up approaches, CNC films often display defects that… read more here.
