Chirality Detection Using Nematic Liquid Crystal Droplets on Anisotropic Surfaces

Nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) form helical macroscopic structures through chiral induction when doped with chiral species. We describe a very simple, though highly sensitive method for determination of handedness and pitch of the induced twist in the case of very weak twisting powers of such chiral...
