July 2026© Geetika Jangid Isotropic state of ZnO doped 5CB nematic liquid crystals.
Nature Meets Nanotechnology A polarized optical micrograph of the isotropic phase of a 5CB liquid crystal nanocomposite incorporating green-synthesized ZnO nanoparticles produced from bio-waste lemon peel extract. The colorful microscopic landscape reflects the harmony between sustainable synthesis, liquid crystal physics, and polarized light. Magnification: The width of the image corresponds to approximately [500 μm]. |
Author
| Geetika Jangid, is pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Physics at Amity University, Gurugram, India. Her research focuses on liquid crystal nanocomposites, with particular emphasis on the incorporation of green-synthesized (bio-waste derived) nanostructures into nematic liquid crystals to enhance their dielectric and electro-optical properties. Her work aims to advance the understanding of structure-property relationships in liquid crystal-based nanocomposites for the development of high-performance functional materials and optoelectronic applications.. email address: geetikajangid0311@gmail.com Website : |
