Light regulation and long-lived stability of RGB colors in cholesteric liquid crystal physical gels via a mixing strategy

Photo-responsive cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) have attracted much attention due to the dynamic tunability of their unique helical superstructure. However, it is still a challenge to endow the mechanical properties and to regulate the reflection colors at the same time. In this work, a simple s...

description Photo-responsive cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) have attracted much attention due to the dynamic tunability of their unique helical superstructure. However, it is still a challenge to endow the mechanical properties and to regulate the reflection colors at the same time. In this work, a simple strategy is developed for the construction of thermo-responsive CLC physical gels via the direct mixing of photo-responsive dopants and a gelator with nematic LCs. The reflection colors of CLCs and the mechanical properties of gels can be independently regulated due to the separation of the photo-responsive chiral group from the gelator. In addition, the CLC reflection colors can be regulated via visible light in the range of RGB with long-lived thermal stability. Finally, the information storage properties of this kind of CLC gel have been investigated.
