More than four decades ago, Brochard and de Gennes proposed that colloidal suspensions
of ferromagnetic particles in nematic (directionally ordered) liquid crystals could form …

Besides nanostructured materials, individual particles are key elements for nanosciences.
The structuring properties of liquid crystals (LCs) are appealing to assemble them, to …

This review presents experimental realization and behaviour of the ferromagnetic nematic
phase, which is observed in different suspensions of magnetic nanoplatelets. After a general …

We have studied the response of ferromagnetic liquid crystals to external magnetic and
electric fields, and compared it to the usual response of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs). We …

We present a detailed experimental and theoretical study of the optical response of
suspensions of ferromagnetic nanoparticles (“ferroparticles”) in nematic liquid crystals …

We have developed a facile method for preparing magnetic nanoparticles which couple
strongly with a liquid crystal (LC) matrix, with the aim of preparing ferronematic liquid crystal …
