Water-stable ammonium-terminated carbosilane dendrimers as efficient antibacterial agents.
A new family of amine- and ammonium-terminated carbosilane dendrimers of the type Gn-[Si(CH2)3N(Et)CH2CH2NMe2]x and Gn-{[Si(CH2)(3)N+R(Et)CH2CH2N+RMe2]x(X-)y} (where n = 1, 2 and 3; R = H, X = Cl; R = Me, X = I) respectively has been synthesized by hydrosilylation of N,N-dimethyl-N'-allyl-N'-ethyl-ethylenediamine, [(CH2=CH-CH2)(Et)N(CH2)2NMe2] with the corresponding hydride-terminated dendrimer...
متن کاملElectroclinic effect in a chiral carbosilane-terminated 5-phenylpyrimidine liquid crystal with 'de Vries-like' properties.
The chiral carbosilane-terminated liquid crystal 2-[(2S,3S)-2,3-difluorohexyloxy]-5-[4-(12,12,14,14,16,16-hexamethyl-12,14,16-trisilaheptadecyloxy)phenyl]pyrimidine () undergoes a smectic A*-smectic C* phase transition with a maximum layer contraction of only 0.2%. It exhibits an electroclinic effect (ECE) comparable to that reported for the 'de Vries-like' liquid crystal and shows no appreciab...
متن کاملP-106: Optical Performance of Bistable Reflective and Transflective Ferroelectric LCDs
We study optical properties of bistable reflective and transflective direct view ferroelectric liquid crystal displays (FLCDs). Single and double polarizer FLCDs with and without a retardation film are considered. Maximal contrast ratio versus optical retardation of liquid crystal layer for different configurations of FLCDs is calculated. Advantages and disadvantages of each configuration are d...
متن کامل51.1: Invited Paper: Bistable LCDs based on a New Alignment Technology
Several new nematic bistable liquid crystal displays based on a new alignment surface have been demonstrated. Nano-textured alignment surfaces enable the generation of arbitrary pretilt angles and arbitrary anchoring energy. Based on such surfaces, three types of bistable devices have been developed. They are bistable bend-splay, bistable twist-twist and bistable bend-twisted displays.
متن کاملCarbosilane and carbosiloxane dendrimers.
This review focuses on novel carbosilane dendrimers containing branches with Si-C and Si-O-C bonds. Introduction of organic moieties into the dendrimers is performed by hydrosilation of carbon-carbon double/triple bonds. Versatile organic or organometallic moieties are introduced onto the peripheral regions of dendrimers by coupling and complexation reactions, which clearly demonstrates their p...
