We systematically study the terahertz (THz) properties of a set of nematic liquid crystals. We
use THz time domain spectroscopy to obtain data between 0.2 THz up to 2.5 THz. Such a …

The photoreaction of dicyanobenzenes with aliphatic carboxylate ions afforded
alkylcyanobenzenes and alkyldicyanobenzenes via decarboxylative substitution. The redox …

In this review the effect on physico-chemical and electro-optical properties of the introduction
of the trans-1, 4-cyclohexylene fragment into the molecular core of liquid crystals is …

The results of an experimental study to measure the tumbling parameter, λ, for various small-
molecule liquid crystals and their mixtures are presented. The methods used include textural …

Temperature triggered anchoring transitions in nematic liquid crystals have been
investigated at solid, as well as at air interfaces. We established a searching algorithm …

We present results of Raman studies of the order parameters< P 2> and< P 4> for some
liquid crystalline cyanophenylcyclohexanes (PCH-3, PCH-5 and PCH-7), which, in contrast …

Investigations of temperature behaviour of the mean refractive index n, ordinary n (o) and
extraordinary n (e) refractive indices, and birefringence Delta n have been carried out for …

Study of the thermo-morfologic, thermotropic and thermo-optical properties of monomorphic
nematic mesogen has been carried out. Temperature behavior of the mean the refractive …

(trans‐4‐Pentyl‐cyclohexyl)‐benzonitril (PCH‐5) has been studied by molecular dynamics
simulations of the isotropic liquid as well as the nematic mesophase. The intra‐and …

Molecular dipole moments of five polar liquid crystalline compounds have been determined
by measuring the dielectric constants and refractive indices of solutions of the compounds in …
