We demonstrated that a lamellar phase of lyotropic liquid crystal formed by liquid dishwash could assemble themselves into crystal droplets when their isotropic phase was slowly changed into lamellar phase on the glass substrate. Characterization by means of polarized optical microscopy showed that a pattern of liquid crystal droplets was developed in the thin films formed by liquid dishwash. Our laser light diffraction experiments confirmed that these liquid crystal droplets could effectively diffract the incident red light from a helium-neon laser. On the basis of the Fraunhofer diffraction equation, we derived for the diameter of liquid crystal droplets. The diameter of liquid crystal droplet is 42.517 m, and almost agreement with the graph of polarized optical microscopy.

Amphiphilic molecules self-assemble lamellar phase process in lyotropic liquid crystal formed by liquid dishwash was investigated with optical microscopy as concentration increases from its isotropic phase to its lamellar phase. We demonstrated that liquid dishwash molecules could assemble themselves into lamellar phase when their concentration increases between one pieces of glass substrate. We discussed the formative processes of Maltese-cross structure and phase transition from isotropic to lamellar phase.
