Abstract

In recent years, cubic phases of thermotropic liquid crystals have received considerable attention, because of their interesting and quite complex three dimensional structures, 1 their applications in switchable ion conducting materials 2 and for the tailoring of nanoparticle arrays. 3 There are two distinct types of cubic phases: those appearing as intermediate phases in the transition between lamellar and columnar organization (Cub V phases) represent ...
