Asymmetric Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquid Crystal with Enhanced Ionic Conductivity in Low-Temperature Smectic Phases

We report the synthesis and characterization of a novel asymmetric imidazolium-based ionic liquid crystal (ILC) dimer exhibiting stable smectic phases over a wide temperature range, including room temperature. This unique molecular structure, combining two distinct mesogenic cores, reduces packing d...
