This thesis is focused on the design and synthesis of liquid crystal gold nanoparticles and all of the relevant molecular sub-structures.

In particular it is focused on the optimisation of the synthesis of nematic mesogens with thiolated functiona... Read More about Synthesis and characterisation of liquid crystal gold nanoparticles.

Novel chiral liquid crystal organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticle systems : Design, synthesis and investigation (2013)
Thesis
Ichim, I. C. (2013). Novel chiral liquid crystal organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticle systems : Design, synthesis and investigation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214773

A first step is taken towards the validation of organic synthesis techniques. Small molecular organic compounds were prepared as intermediates for the liquid crystal materials which exhibit room temperature cholesteric mesophases. These cholesterol b...
