Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystals From Viscoelastic Properties to Living Liquid Crystals

Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystals From Viscoelastic Properties to Living Liquid Crystals / by Shuang Zhou.

This thesis describes lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) with exotic elastic and viscous properties. The first part of the thesis presents a thorough analysis of the elastic and viscous properties of LCLCs as functions of concentration, temperature and ionic contents, while the second part...
