Three series of diaminotriazine derivatives with different core length have been synthesized, and the influence of the structural variation as well as the temperature on their mesophase behaviour were systematically investigated. With focus on the formation of CubI/Im3ˉm phase, multiple 2D/3D phases were discovered. Confirmed by polarized optical microscope, small/wide angle X-ray scattering, grazing incident small-angle X-ray scattering as well as molecular dynamics simulation, the results indicate that molecular curvature is critical to self-assembly structures. Moreover, the prerequisite for the formation of the CubI/Im3ˉm phase is intermediate molecular curvature on the surface of the micelle to allow the intercalation of the alkyl chains. Finally, the potentials for such compounds as light-emitting liquid crystal display (LE-LCD) device has been initially demonstrated.

Two micellar cubic phases with different structures were observed for the first time in the order Im3m-Pm3n in a thermotropic phase sequence of 4,6-diaminotriazine terminated rod-like liquid crystals upon increasing alkyl chain length or rising temperatur

A large number of new liquid crystals incorporating the 2,5-disubstituted thiophene ring have been prepared and their mesomorphic behaviour studied in order to systematically investigate the correlation between the molecular structure and mesomorphism of thiophene derivatives with different shapes, polarisability and polarity. As a consequence of these investigations we have prepared a new class of liquid crystals incorporating a 2,5-disubstituted thiophene ring and a conjugated trans-carbon-carbon double bond in the terminal chain. These novel thiophene derivatives are the first liquid crystals incorporating a 2,5-disubstituted thiophene ring to exhibit a nematic phase at room temperature. This enables the flexoelectric coefficients of a bent-shaped molecule to be measured directly and at room temperature for the first time to the authors' knowledge. Many of these new thiophenes exhibit a high birefringence and a high nematic clearing point and are of potential use as components of nematic mixtures in LCDs.
