Abstract
Communication: Incorporation of emission properties into organic liquid cry
stals (LCs) is currently an active area of research. The authors present th
e first example of a functional phasmidic LC with intrinsic luminescence pr
operties. It is shown that organization in the solid state-the Figure indic
ates the average ordering of hexacatenar LCs in the hexagonal phase (top vi
ew)-has a distinct effect on the emission profiles of these materials.
