Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the fundamental properties and applications of liquid crystals (LCs). It covers their elastic and elastic responses, including the behavior of different types of nematic LCs like thermotropic and lyotropic. The scope extends to topological defects, such as disclinations and dislocations, and their role in various LC phases, including chiral and bent-shaped liquid crystals. The journal also explores the integration of LCs with advanced materials like metasurfaces and their use in fabricating microdevices and functional materials.
