Journal Article
Crapnell, R. D., Alhasan, H. S., Partington, L. I., Zhou, Y., Ahmed, Z., Altalhi, A. A., Varley, T. S., Alahmadi, N., Mehl, G. H., Kelly, S. M., Lawrence, N. S., Marken, F., & Wadhawan, J. D. (2021). Electrochemically Induced Mesomorphism Switching in a Chlorpromazine Hydrochloride Lyotropic Liquid Crystal. ACS Omega, 6(7), 4630-4640. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsomega.0c05284

The discovery of electrochemical switching of the Lα phase of chlorpromazine hydrochloride in water is reported. The phase is characterized using polarizing microscopy, X-ray scattering, rheological measurements, and microelectrode voltammetry. Fast,...

Voltammetry within structured liquid nanosystems: towards the design of a flexible, three-dimensional framework for artificial photosystems (2012)
Journal Article
Halls, J. E., Wright, K. J., Pickersgill, J. E., Smith, J. P., Altalhi, A. A., Bourne, R. W., Alaei, P., Ramakrishnappa, T., Kelly, S. M., & Wadhawan, J. (2012). Voltammetry within structured liquid nanosystems: towards the design of a flexible, three-dimensional framework for artificial photosystems. Electrochimica acta, 70, 215-227. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2012.03.052

Normal lyotropic liquid crystals (in the lamellar or hexagonal phases) are investigated as a route to afford a structured, three-dimensional, quasi-biphasic framework within which electron transfer cascades may be initiated voltammetrically. For mode... Read More about Voltammetry within structured liquid nanosystems: towards the design of a flexible, three-dimensional framework for artificial photosystems.
