💡 Światło w sprężynie? To możliwe, a w dodatku bardzo przydatne. O co dokładnie chodzi? Wytłumaczyć to może prof. Wiktor Lewandowski z @ChemistryUW, który przed chwilą został ogłoszony laureatem Nagrody @NCN_PL 2024 w obszarze nauk ścisłych i technicznych.
Gratulujemy 👏

The discovery of a new way of ordering liquid crystals changes the understanding of organic matter. It can be used in fluid physics, liquid crystal materials, organic electronics, photonics and molecular biology. @WAT_edu @UniWarszawski @ScienceMagazine

Metal #nano particles can exist in different structural forms (similar to molecular isomers) which controls how they grow into larger NPs. The latest #research from my group @RiceUniversity published in @J_A_C_S shows how to purify these species #Chem. pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021…

This cholesteric liquid crystal elastomer has an unusual helical axis distortion, which leads to this 🌈 of colours on stretching

Did you know that chiral organic films do not have to be of a single handedness?! We just developed a way to freely determine chirality using a laser in microscope set up leading to films with bi-chiral pixels 🔬🔬Read about it in the Advanced Materials onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
🔹The recepie is simple: 1. Take a compund that forms chiral domains when crystallizing🧬2. Make a thin film of it with chaotic domains of both handednesses⛓️3. Use laser in microscope to locally melt and control crystallization front propagation🔬4. Automatize the process!🦾

This procedure can also be easily applied to films doped with metal nanoparticles leading to chiral plasmonic films with freeley encoded handedness! This work would not be possible without the great collaboration with Paweł Majewski @ChemistryUW
