Liquid Crystal Ordering in Densely Packed Colloidal Suspensions of Highly Anisotropic Monolayer Nanosheets

Monolayer nanosheets of zirconium phosphate in aqueous suspension exhibit short-range repulsion and long-range attraction, producing, at overall volume fractions larger than about half a percent, phase separation into higher-concentration liquid crystal and lower-concentration isotropic regions. At...
