After watching [Ben Krasnow]’s efforts to build a liquid crystal display, we can easily see why the suits thought what they did. It’s an amazing engineering feat. Before building his own ...

A new study by researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign describes a breakthrough in the field of organic ...

In Australia more than 3,600 people live with cystic fibrosis with one in every 2,500 babies born with the disease. Lead investigator UniSA's Professor Clive Prestidge says that liquid crystal ...

What are Liquid Crystal Nanoparticles? Liquid crystal nanoparticles (LCNPs) are a unique class of nanomaterials that combine the properties of liquid crystals with the advantages of nanoparticles.

Applications such as self-driving vehicles, 6G mobile communications and quantum communications are pushing fiber optic ...

More than $2 billion has been spent over the past 15 years in trying to develop the technology and infrastructure behind liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) displays. After a fitful start ...

The POSTECH research team has developed a synthesis method that precisely controls the size and shape of PNCs using a liquid crystal (LC) as an antisolvent in the LARP method. LC is an ...

Many things that are interesting in science and engineering are shape optimization problems,” said Tim Atherton. Here, a chiral liquid crystal membrane simulated with Morpho software.

A strange type of ice thought to dwell deep in the oceans of alien planets has finally been proven to exist. For the first time, researchers have directly observed a sort of hybrid phase of water ...
