Email: dkatz@ Web site: Nanotechnology Major area of research and development Only now being introduced into textbooks for general chemistry Almost no inclusion in the student laboratory. Lab procedures and kits developed at the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison /Edetc/index.html (Go to video lab manual) Courses CHM 121IN, Chemistry and Society CHM 125IN, Consumer Chemistry Non-major courses Taught as a hands-on learning courses Experiments introduced in 2003 ENG 110IN, Solid State Chemistry LED and solar cell experiments included in laboratory Mood Rings Dark blue: Happy, romantic or passionate Blue: Calm or relaxed Blue-green: Somewhat relaxed Green: Normal or average Amber: A little nervous or anxious Gray: Very nervous or anxious Black: Stressed, tense or feeling harried Liquid Crystals Both pressure sensitive and temperature sensitive (thermochromic) mixtures are prepared Liquid Crystals Organic compounds in a state between liquid and solid Viscous, jelly-like materials that resemble liquids in viscosity and crystals in light-scattering and reflection Highly anisotropic (having different optical properties in different directions) - usually long and narrow - and revert to an isotropic liquid (same optical properties in all directions) through thermal action (heat) or by the influence of a solvent. Cholesterol Cholesteryl Ester Liquid Crystals Types of Cholesteryl Liquid Crystals ?Lyotropic Molecules consist of a nonpolar hydrocarbon chain with a polar head group. In a solvent, such as water, the water molecules are sandwiched between the polar heads of adjacent layers while the hydrocarbon tails lie in a nonpolar environment. These tend to be pressure and temperature sensitive Types
