NMR studies of solutes in nematic liquid crystals: understanding the nematogens

NMR spectroscopy and dynamics of small solute molecules dissolved in several nematic liquid crystals provided insights toward a better understanding of nematogens. Expressions for all possible spin-relaxation rates for dideuterium are given. Exper- imentally obtained Zeeman relaxation rates in se...
