A liquid crystal like difluoroterphenyl chiral dopant was synthesized to match the dimensions of a host chiral dopant mixture. The melting point of the chiral dopants was decreased by increasing the length of the alkyl chain. The melting point of the...

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.
