“…Physical gels that combine the anisotropic character of LCs and the mechanical rigidity of the thermoreversible network have been reported to present significant consequences on the LC-gel (LCG) properties, faster electro-optic response, anomalous variations in elastic constants, enhanced photoluminescence, and applications in soft robotics and flexible displays. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] We have just reported 15 the novel influence of sample thickness and applied pressure on the characteristics of an organogel exhibiting a nematic-to-nematic-gel transition. It was found that the gelation temperature (T sg ) depends strongly on the sample thickness d, for d o 30 mm.…”
