Study of phase separation and fluctuation of liquid crystals in low-dimensional systems via the continuous control of interfacial properties

我们研究了近晶薄膜在水中的相变和结构转变。结果发现，在分子有序超薄膜中，我们发现它们随着温度的升高而变薄一分子层，这在一些特殊的液晶中已经观察到了，并发现了我们的薄膜与在空气中的此类薄膜的区别。此外，我们还成功地制备了球状超薄近晶薄膜。在薄膜中，边界的影响比以前的正方形框架中的影响要小得多。在球形薄膜中观察到了相变动力学。

We studied the phase and structural transition of smectic thin films in water. As a result, in molecular-order ultrathin films, we found their thinning by one molecular layer on the temperature increase, which has been observed in some particular liquid crystals in air, and also found the difference between our films and such films in air. In addition, we succeeded in preparing spherical ultrathin smectic films. In the films the effect of boundary is fairly less than those in the previous square frame. The phase transition dynamics was observed in the spherical films.
