Abstract
We report on the high-temperature resolution measurements of the optical and thermal parameters of a liquid-crystal-silica nanoparticle colloid, as well as its video inspection, simultaneously performed in an upgraded photopyroelectric calorimeter. Over the nematic-isotropic coexistence region, the determined nematic correlation length, obtained from turbidity measurements, showed the characteristic two-step nematic nucleation process previously reported only for the specific heat.
