Inelastic fixed window scans on a nanoconfined discotic liquid crystal
Discotic liquid crystals (DLC) are soft-matter materials which organize into columns that further assemble into two-dimensional arrays with a hexagonal mesophase. Highly ordered columnar structures were found to be very promising as active semiconductors in organic field-effect transistors and photovoltaic devices. The charge transport in these systems is controlled by their molecular mobility. Confining DLCs to the unidirectional channels of nanoporous anodic aluminium (AAO) can be regarded as model system for nanoscaled wires. To get an overview about the molecular mobility of a triphenylene based DLC in the bulk and confined to the 80 nm and 40 nm wide pores of AAO it is proposed to carry out inelastic fixed window scans on a backscattering instrument.
