Abstract
- Cucurbit(6)uril-protected ZrO2 nanocolloids were prepared in a tetraethylene glycol solution of zirconium (IV) in the presence of cucurbit(6)uril.
- Cucurbit(6)uril-protected ZrO2 nanoparticles had an average diameter of 7.4Â nm.
- The average width and length of cucurbit(6)uril-protected ZrO2 nanowires were 240 nm and 13.7 μm, respectively.
- ZrO2 nanowires show superior electro-optic properties of liquid crystal devices.
- We report a electro-optic properties of liquid crystal devices doped with cucurbit(6)uril-protected ZrO2 nanowires.
