Abstract

Highly fluorescent nematic liquid crystals (LCs) from an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer molecule are developed by Tsuneaki Sakurai, Shu Seki, and co-workers in article number 1801349. The LCs are transparent but highly fluorescent in the visible region, and miscible with conventional nematic LCs, allowing room-temperature emissive LCs with an anisotropic fluorescence, whose intensity is controllable by electric field, and a high quantum yield of 26%.
