Ordered materials for organic electronics and photonics (2010)
Journal Article
O’Neill, M., & Kelly, S. M. (2011). Ordered materials for organic electronics and photonics. Advanced materials, 23(5), 566-584. https://doi.org/10.1002/adma.201002884

We present a critical review of semiconducting/light emitting, liquid crystalline materials and their use in electronic and photonic devices such as transistors, photovoltaics, OLEDs and lasers. We report that annealing from the mesophase improves th... Read More about Ordered materials for organic electronics and photonics.

Carbazole nematic liquid crystals (2010)
Journal Article
Bao, W., Billa, M. R., Kassireddy, K., Haro, M., Kelly, M. J., Kitney, S. P., Al Kalifah, M. S., Wei, P., Dong, D., O'Neill, M., & Kelly, S. M. (2010). Carbazole nematic liquid crystals. Liquid crystals, 37(10), 1289-1303. https://doi.org/10.1080/02678292.2010.504862

A number of calamitic 2,7-diary-N-alkyl-substituted carbazoles with an enantiotropic nematic phase have been prepared. Branching of the aliphatic chain attached to the nitrogen atom in the carbazole ring leads to significantly lower liquid crystal tr... Read More about Carbazole nematic liquid crystals.

Optical properties of light-emitting nematic liquid crystals: A joint experimental and theoretical study (2010)
Journal Article
Liedtke, A., O'Neill, M., Kelly, S. M., Kitney, S. P., van Averbeke, B., Boudard, P., Beljonne, D., & Cornil, J. (2010). Optical properties of light-emitting nematic liquid crystals: A joint experimental and theoretical study. Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 114(37), 11975-11982. https://doi.org/10.1021/jp104280w

Semiempirical quantum-chemical calculations are used to simulate the optical properties of a series of green light-emitting nematic liquid crystals containing fluorene, thiophene, or thienothiophene groups with solid-state photoluminescence quantum e...

One-step photoembossing for submicrometer surface relief structures in liquid crystal semiconductors (2010)
Journal Article
Liedtke, A., Lei, C., O’Neill, M., Dyer, P. E., Kitney, S. P., & Kelly, S. M. (2010). One-step photoembossing for submicrometer surface relief structures in liquid crystal semiconductors. ACS Nano, 4(6), 3248-3253. https://doi.org/10.1021/nn100012g

We report a new single-step method to directly imprint nanometer-scale structures on photoreactive organic semiconductors. A surface relief grating is spontaneously formed when a light-emitting, liquid crystalline, and semiconducting thin film is irr...
