Monodomain liquid crystal elastomers and elastomeric gels: Improved thermomechanical responses and phase behaviour by addition of low molecular weight LCs

Large monodomain-liquid crystal elastomer films have been prepared using mechanical alignment, either as pure materials or as gels doped with low molecular weight chiral liquid crystals. The thermomechanical strain behaviour of the resulting materials has been studied over a range of temperatures. T...
