Liquid Crystal Materials

Liquid Crystal Materials is a class of soft condensed‑matter optical materials that exhibit mesophases with long‑range orientational (and sometimes partial positional) order intermediate between crystalline solids and isotropic liquids, thereby providing anisotropic and externally tunable optical properties.
