研究領域與專長：

有機金屬、液晶材料

Research Interests:

Organometallics and liquid crystals
We are focusing on investigating the synthesis and properties of different types of liquid crystals, especially discotic nematic and columnar mesogens. The materials designed include organic, coordination, and organometallic compounds. Some of the systems are designed for applications in LCDs. However, the main goal of our research is trying to manipulate molecular arrangements by designing molecules with different geometries and functional groups. By controlling the molecular packing motifs in liquid crystalline states, the corresponding properties can be achieved and proposed applications can be explored.
