Abstract The spectral and electrooptical properties of some dichroic fluorescent dyes (derivatives of 3.4,9,10-perylenetetracorboxylic acid and of 3,4,9-perylenetricarboxylic acid) in isotropic solvents and nematic liquid crystals have been studied. The order parameter of the dyes in the anisotropic matrices has been determined by means of optical spectroscopy methods. Moreover, the influence of the dye addition on the nematic-isotropic phase transition temperature of the pure host has been investigated. It was found that some of the dyes studied can be utilized in guest-host liquid crystal display devices.

Hexadecyltrimethyl Ammonium Bromide

The uniform hexagonal barium ferrite powders were synthesized by co-precipitation method using metal chloride. The effects of the amount of hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), the water bath and calcination temperature on the phase formation, microstructure and density of barium ferrites were systematically investigated. The results showed that the formation of uniform hexagonal barium ferrite powders was significantly influenced by the amount of CTAB and the water bath could lead to the larger grain size and density. The SEM demonstrated that the BaFe12O19 powders had plate-like shape with crystallite sizes varing from 150 to 200 nm. When the amount of CTAB was 0.2g/100ml and the calcination temperature was 850 °C, the barium ferrite powders were uniform which indicated that the amount of surfactant and calcination temperature were very optimum.
