Combinations of liquid crystals and materials with unique features as well as properties at the nanoscale are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to recent developments, i.e., since 2007, in areas ranging from liquid crystal-nanoparticle dispersions to nanomaterials forming liquid crystalline phases after surface modification with mesogenic or promesogenic moieties. Experimental and synthetic approaches are summarized, design strategies compared, and potential as well as existing applications discussed. Finally, a critical outlook into the future of this fascinating field of liquid crystal research is provided.

Influential electro-optical and textural properties in the smectic C* phase have been observed using gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLCs). An application of mere 0.1V brings fivefold increase in optical tilt and doping creates a strong intrinsic field inside the sample generating high tilt and a reproducible observation of memory effect. The lowering of threshold voltage and the enhanced optical contrast is probably due to the interaction of electron wave oscillation in Au NPs with the incident light traversing through the FLC molecules.
