Basic Idea of Liquid Crystal

Liquid crystal (LC) which represent a distinct and unique state of matter exist between solid and liquid phases. They are liquid in mobility and crystalline in their anisotropic physical properties. Apart from their importance in life sciences, liquid crystals (mesophases) have been the novel media in many practical applications, especially in display device technology such as portable devices like wristwatches, pocket calculators, measuring instruments and laptop computers. There are a large number of chemically very different compounds forming different types of liquid crystalline compound. It is an introductory book that deals with the definition of liquid crystals, historical developments, classification, nomenclature, mesophase type and phase structures. In addition, a brief description of the structure-property relationship in the liquid crystalline compounds and the effect of core groups, lateral substituents, terminal substituents and linking groups on the mesophase are also included. Some important applications of liquid crystals are also presented.

My M.Sc. and Ph.D. was completed in saurashtra university, Rajkot in the guidance of Dr. U. C. Bhoya. I have been published 17 research paper in reputed journal. I also interested in technology so, i select research topic is Liquid Crystal because this technology is very rapidly increase.
