Journal Article
Billa, M. R., Kassireddy, K., Haro, M., Al-Kalifah, M. S., Kelly, S. M., Kitney, S. P., & O'Neill, M. (2011). Liquid crystalline organic semiconductors: nematic spiro[cyclopentyl-1,9']fluorenes. Liquid crystals, 38(7), 813-829. https://doi.org/10.1080/02678292.2011.577913

A number of nematic spiro[cyclopentyl-1,9′]fluorene reactive mesogens with polymerisable oxetane or non-conjugated diene end-groups have been successfully synthesised. The melting and clearing points of these new spiro[cyclopentyl-1,9′]fluorenes are... Read More about Liquid crystalline organic semiconductors: nematic spiro[cyclopentyl-1,9']fluorenes.

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.
