Abstract

ABSTRACT The interplay between gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and liquid crystals (LCs) opens compelling solutions that produce a win-win solution for both classes of materials. AuNPs are successfully utilised to induce a controlled phase change of LCs and, simultaneously, LCs make an active control of the AuNPs optical properties. LC plasmonics generates hybrid materials that could revolutionise next-generation optical and photonic applications in this framework.
