Discotic Liquid Crystals for Opto-Electronic Applications
Abstract
Discotic liquid crystals (DLCs) have been exploited in opto-electronic devices for their advantageous properties including long-range self-assembling, self-healing, ease of processing, solubility in a variety of organic solvents, and high charge-carrier mobilities along the stacking axis. An overview of DLCs and their charge-carrier mobilities, theoretical modeling, alignment, and device applications is addressed herein. The effects of alignment on charge-carrier properties of DLCs are discussed. Particular attention is devoted to processing techniques that achieve suitable alignment of DLCs for efficient electronic devices such as zone-casting, zone melting, Langmuir−Blodgett deposition, solution-casting on preoriented polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), surface treatment, IR irradiation, application of a magnetic field, use of sacrificial layers, use of blends, application of an electric field, and others.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
