Comparative studies were carried out of cholesteric liquid crystal dispersions of anisotropic nanoparticles of different types, namely, essentially rod-like carbon nanotubes (CNT) and plate-like exfoliated particles of organo-modified Laponite and montmorillonite clays. The characteristic properties...
