Colloidal rods, plates and their mixtures : preparation, characterisation, and phase behaviour

Hard rod and plate particles have previously shown an interesting range of liquid crystalline phase behaviour in experiments, simulation and theory. Under certain conditions a biaxial phase has been proposed but this has not been shown experimentally yet. The phase behaviour of hard rods in a non-aq...
