The properties of specifically designed nanocomposites are currently of high interest to scientists as they are different to those of materials in bulk. Of special interest are nanocomposites made up of gold nanoparticles and liquid crystalline mater...

A number of new liquid crystalline systems were synthesized and the liquid crystal phase behaviour was investigated. The investigation of the liquid crystal properties involved the characterisation of the neat substances by optical polarizing microsc...
