We discuss a liquid crystal composite approach to provide a distributed interface to vertically separate electron-donating and electron-accepting films in an organic photovoltaic device. Two different ...

Abstract: A new approach is proposed for measuring the cell thickness, twist angle, pretilt angle, and azimuth angle of twisted-nematic liquid crystal (TNLC) cells utilizing the Stokes parameter ...

Abstract: An adaptive graded index photonic crystal (GRIN PC) lens system is designed by using liquid crystal (LC) infiltration. LCs have the property to change their refractive indices when an ...

No longer confined to the realms of science labs or nature's secretive underground, crystal growing has made its way into homes, sparking the interest of DIY enthusiasts worldwide. With these kits, ...

My work in CDU is extended through efforts in the production of polymers, small molecules and liquid fuels, using the commercially viable products as energy stores from renewable power. I was also an ...
