The response of trees to intra‐annual environmental constraints varies temporally
throughout a growing season and spatially across landscapes. A better understanding of …

The process of liquid–liquid crystalline phase separation (LLCPS) in filamentous colloids is
at the very core of multiple biological, physical and technological processes of broad …

It seems certain now that cholesteric liquid crystals (cholesterics, or CLC, for short) have
been the first examples of mesomorphic state of matter known to humankind. Apart from the …

The characteristics of cholesteric liquid crystals can be controlled by light irradiation if
conformationally photo-active molecules are present. Recently, control of the selective …

In this paper, for the first time, a systematic experimental and theoretical analysis of the
cholesteric induction due to solutes whose chirality is originated only by a single stereogenic …

In this work, some of the most important characteristics of chiral compounds as components
of the liquid crystal (LC) systems are discussed. These characteristics are the helical twisting …

This work describes the observation of lasing in an intermediate chiral phase of a dye-doped
cholesteric liquid crystal mixture. This intermediate phase exists between cholesteric and …

It has been shown that UV radiation can produce observable color changes in induced
cholesteric systems (nematic+ optically active dopant) additionally doped with ergosterol …

Accurate and low‐cost wearable or portable monitors for personal solar ultraviolet (UV)
exposure are of interest to reduce the risk of adverse UV effects such as eye diseases …

Recent studies of cholesteric systems are briefly reviewed, with special attention paid to the
relationship between the molecular structure of the optically active molecules and the helical …
