Abstract

Supramolecular chemistry is concerned with interactions between molecules, how they can recognize each other, assemble and function on a molecular scale. It provides a bottom up approach to nanoscale systems with applications ranging from biology to materials science. Merging of nanoparticles or nanotechnology, in a wide sense, with self-assembled systems such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs), may attract the attention of researchers who are interested in inaugurating new combinations of different fields. This study aims to synthesize supramolecule-stabilized rhodium nanoparticles and using them to develop novel display materials. Crown ether-stabilized rhodium nanoparticles and calixarene-stabilized rhodium (CA-Rh) nanoparticles have an average diameter of a single nanometer. The power consumption of this TN-LCDs in the presence of CA-Rh rhodium nanoparticles was low. The contrast ratio in the presence of CA-Rh nanoparticles is much better than that in the absence.
