Profile

Text

V.N. is a senior researcher and the Head of the Liquid Crystal Group in the Department of Dielectrics. Her research expertise and experience is related to liquid crystalline compounds and their physical properties, mainly liquid crystalline (LC) compounds with dipole ordering, LC monomers and/or polymers. She is an expert in new hybrid nanocomposites (organic liquid crystalline, preferentially ferroelectric LCs) with anorganic nanoparticles (magnetic, ferroelectric, metalic and/or semiconducting) as well as in the measurements and interpretation of optical, calorimetric, dielectric and/polar properties of different types of LC compounds and hybrid systems.
