Liquid Crystal Elastomers for Biological Applications [PDF]
, 2021 The term liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) describes a class of materials that combine the elastic entropy behaviour associated with conventional elastomers with the stimuli responsive properties of anisotropic liquid crystals.

Viruses and the physics of soft condensed matter [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 Almost 50 years ago, Francis Crick and James Watson observed that “almost all small viruses are either spheres or rods” and put forth the hypothesis that such viruses were symmetrical arrays of subunits (1). In the following paper in that issue of Nature , Donald Caspar demonstrated that tomato bushy stunt virus had at least cubic symmetry and provided

, 2013 Soft matter (polymers, colloids, surfactants and liquid crystals) are an important class of materials in modern technology. They also form the basis of many future technologies, for example in medical and environmental applications.

Quantitative 3D real-space analysis of Laves phase supraparticles
Nature Communications, 2021 3D real-space analysis of thick nanoparticle crystals is non-trivial. Here, the authors demonstrate the structural analysis of a bulk-like Laves phase by imaging an off-stoichiometric binary mixture of hard-sphere-like nanoparticles in spherical ...

On the improved electrochemistry of hybrid conducting-redox polymer electrodes
Scientific Reports, 2017 The electrochemistry of poly(2,5-dihydroxyaniline) (PDHA), a novel hybrid molecular configuration with redox active sites and electrical charge conduction along the polymer chain, has been recently reported.

Study of dynamical heterogeneities in colloidal nanoclay suspensions approaching dynamical arrest
Scientific Reports, 2017 The dynamics of aqueous Laponite clay suspensions slow down with increasing sample waiting time (t w ). This behavior, and the material fragility that results, closely resemble the dynamical slowdown in fragile supercooled liquids with decreasing ...

Shape and Structure Formation of Mixed Nonionic–Anionic Surfactant Micelles
Molecules, 2021 Aqueous solutions of a nonionic surfactant (either Tween20 or BrijL23) and an anionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) are investigated, using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).

JCIS Open, 2023 When a soft glassy colloidal suspension is displaced by a Newtonian fluid in a radial Hele-Shaw geometry, the pattern morphology that develops at the interface is determined by the complex rheology of the former. We had reported in an earlier work [Palak,

Heating-Induced Transformation of Anatase TiO2 Nanorods into Rock-Salt TiO Nanoparticles: Implications for Photocatalytic and Gas-Sensing Applications [PDF]
, 2022 Anatase TiO2 nanocrystals (NCs) play a vital role in photocatalytic applications due to their high catalytic activity and in gas-sensing applications due to their high chemical sensitivity.
