New compounds exhibiting ionic liquid crystalline phases are presented, both of calamitic as well as discotic type. Their dynamic and structural properties have been investigated with a series of experimental techniques including differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical spectroscopy, X-ray scattering, and nuclear magnetic resonance, impedance spectroscopy to mention but a few. Moreover, computer simulations using both fully atomistic and highly coarse-grained force fields have been presented, offering an invaluable microscopic view of the structure and dynamics of these fascinating materials.Technology: general issuesbicsscphotoconductivitythermotropicX-ray diffractionmesophasescrystal polymorphscolumnarviologensalignment layercrown etherimidazoliumelectron transportmetathesis reactionpolarizing optical microscopyliquid crystalsAg nano-particles dopingdiscoticmolecular orientational orderthermogravimetric analysision transportmolecular dynamicsnuclear magnetic resonancesmectic phase Aion channelsionic liquidionic liquid crystalphase behaviorimpedance spectroscopyresidual DCdifferential scanning calorimetry4-n-alkylbenzenesulfonic acidsionic liquid crystalsionic liquidsthiazoliumliquid crystalsalt effectTechnology: general issuesSaielli Giacomo1312843ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910346850903321Ionic Liquid Crystals3031018UNINA
