Abstract

Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs) capable of polymerization open new areas for nano- and bio-applications beyond displays. The intrinsic anisotropies of thermal, optical, and electrical properties of such LCMs allow for a wide range of self-assembled mesoscopic structures within amorphous matrices or on solid substrates. Based on diverse structures of the LCMs, we demonstrate two representative devices, colloidal microwires and an artificial iris for a human eye.
