Abstract:
The primary objective of the present study was to develop mesogenic metal complexes. Part of this work was concerned with the synthesis of structural analogues of existing mesogenic bis-1,2-dithiolatonickel(II) complexes to explore the impact of structural variations on the mesophase behaviour of these complexes and to develop complexes with novel mesophase behaviour. The study was successfully continued to develop new mesogenic systems. The work has shown that replacement of the hydrogen atom at the 2-position of the metallodithiolato ring by a phenyl or alkyl group diminishes the tendency of

Abstract:
A basic introduction to liquid crystals and surfactants has been given, along with a description of the main techniques employed in the study of liquid crystals (in particular optical polarising microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction studies). Conventional surfactants comprise a polar head group and a hydrophobic, hydrocarbon chain ie. they are amphiphilic. Because long chains have high melting points the length of the alkyl chain in these compounds is limited to < ca C[18], as long chain surfactants are usually insoluble. T

Abstract:
Non-covalent interactions are of great importance in biology, chemistry, and material sciences. Although much information about different types of non-covalent interactions is available, incorporating them in a molecular design to generate a molecule that can undergo association to form a molecular assembly with bulk properties of interest is a challenge. To understand and harness intermolecular interactions, we have designed an indane 2,5-diketopiperazine (DKP) scaffold. Crystal engineering studies with this scaffold show that the molecules assemble into one dimensional tapes via reciprocal a

Abstract:
Discotic liquid crystal research is now more than 30 years old, however it is still early days compared with the well-established area of calamitic liquid crystal research which dates back for more than a century. Since the 1990’s there has been great deal of interest in discotic liquid crystal research, due to applications such as discotic compensation films for enhancing liquid crystal display (LCD) viewing angles and exciting new potential applications such as organic semi-conductors and photovoltaics.The work contained in this thesis can be broken down into three major areas: investigation

Abstract:
These days, organic photovoltaic devices (OPV) have received a large interest from both academic and industrial researchers as alternative energy source to replace petroleum and nuclear fission. New organic semi-conductors (OSC) are actively researched since these materials can be purified and processed by solution techniques that are cheaper than those required for silicon. The current record efficiency is 8.3%. Further improvement of the OPV performances is desired in order to decrease both the pay-back time of the device and the price of the energy produced.

Abstract:
New liquid crystals have been synthesized and their transition phases have been studied. It was found that a family of (-)-2-methyl 2R,3S-epithio-4'-alkoxybiphenyl pentanoates are liquid crystals but a similar system of ( + )-2-methyl 2S,3R-epoxy-4'-alkoxybiphenyl pentanoates are not. Of the liquid crystals, MEAOBP-S-7 exhibits smectic A and B phases; MEAOBP-S-8 and MEAOBP-S-9 show only the smectic B phases; MEAOBP-S-10 shows a monotropic chiral smectic C phase. This distinction is in agreement with the argument that the internal dipolar interaction of the molecule plays an important role in d

Abstract:
The area of liquid crystals has received substantial research effort over the last century, particularly when the beneficial applications such as Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) were realised and developed. For the majority of this time, it has been considered that a linear molecular shape is required in order to generate a mesomorphic phase. It was therefore of particular interest and excitement when, in 1996, it was shown that a 'banana-shaped' molecular architecture could exhibit a new class of liquid crystalline phase. Additionally it was found that these new mesophases exhibited chiral dom
