Breakthrough of formation mechanism and functionalization of chiral liquid crystal phase by molecular structure

具有高手性的高阶纳米结构液晶（如蓝色相）对手性非常敏感，其形成机制尚不清楚。为了了解手性如何有效地从手性分子转移到液晶分子，对手性分子结构进行了改变。蓝色相的稳定性和性能的改善有望成为下一代显示器件，并且通过改变手性分子结构获得了外部刺激下的液晶相变。

High order nanostructures liquid crystals with high chirality (for example, blue phases) are exquisitely sensitive to chirality, their formation mechanism are not clear. In order to understand how chirality is transferred from chiral molecules to liquid crystal molecules efficiently and effectively, chiral molecular structures were changed. The critically interesting results such as stabilization and improved properties of blue phases are expected to be next generation display devices and liquid crystal phase transitions by external stimuli were obtained by changing chiral molecular structures.
