The Molecular Dynamics of Liquid Crystals [E-Book] / edited by G. R. Luckhurst, C. A. Veracini.
Liquid-crystalline phases are now known to be formed by an ever growing range of quite diverse materials, these include those of low molecular weight as well as the novel liquid-crystalline polymers, such phases can also be induced by the addition of a solvent to amphiphilic systems leading to lyotr...
