Portable, intuitive wearable devices have been sought after in recent years. Despite the flexibility and miniaturization of current electronic devices, the power supply and complex structural design ...

A team at the University of Colorado Boulder has designed new kinds of liquid crystals that mirror the complex structures of some solid crystals—a major step forward in building flowing materials that ...

A team from the Faculty of Physics, MSU together with their foreign colleagues developed a new liquid crystal material with high potential as a basis for brighter, faster, energy saving displays with ...

Researchers from Huazhong University of Science and Technology demonstrated a breakthrough in holographic polymer nanocomposites using the liquid crystal E6M. This method marks a major breakthrough in ...

Researchers from Edinburgh University are developing a liquid crystal material that could potentially be used to produce computer screens which could be folded small enough to fit into a pocket. The ...

Under the right conditions, liquid crystals condense into astonishing structures, spontaneously generating filaments and flattened discs that can transport material from one place to another, much ...

More than 100 years after a pair of imaginative physicists first proposed a new phase of liquid crystal, scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder have managed to produce it and have been left ...

I enjoyed reading the article, “A Century of Chemistry and of C&EN” in the Aug. 7/14, 2023, issue of C&EN (page 18). I wanted to mention one development that was not covered in the piece. In 1966, my ...

A team led by researchers at Tohoku University have taken the first step toward developing antiferromagnetic technology. They detected a ...
