Synthesis and Characterisation of New Polymerisable Mesogens Containing Fluorene Moieties

Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: Liquid crystals present an intermediate state of matter. In a liquid the molecules are in contact but are able to move past each other. In a crystal the molecules are not able to move past one another, they are incorporated in the cystalline lattice, giving the system a long-range order. In nematic liquid crystals, the molecules are arranged in such a way that their l...
