title: CdSe quantum dots in a columnar matrix.
abstract: Cadmium selenide quantum dots (QDs) have been dispersed in a discotic liquid crystal columnar matrix. Thermophysical properties of these liquid crystal nanocomposites were investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy, DC conductivity and small angle X-ray diffraction.
