Ice skating is how the Nealey group has its last hurrah for 2023: shredding the ice with a view! Not pictured (unfortunately): our sick moves on the rink 💃🕺

@uchicago's @JuandePablo6 and Paul Nealey's lab groups have made critical advances in studying blue phase liquid crystals, a step towards using them in novel applications. - @ScienceAdvances

Here we go! Our work on controlling the crystalline texture of discotic liquid crystals has made it to the backcover of the Journal of Materials Chemistry C.

Check out our recent paper where we demonstrate a new and facile method to control the crystalline texture of discotic organic semiconductor. Big thanks to the entire team!

A celebratory dinner for (Dr. Wang)^2, complete with "monogram" pecan pies custom made by our one and only advisor! Also a great chance to snap our latest group photos, including a silly one - guess which members didn't quite catch the "silly" memo in time for the photo 😛

Exciting News! Our recent review paper on Blue Phase Liquid Crystals has just been published! Hats off to my incredible coauthors for doing an amazing job! Grateful to work with such a fantastic team.

The latest of the Nealey group oeuvre is hot off the presses 🔥 check out this new paper where we look at how different structural isomer side chains in one block of a block copolymer can exhibit dramatically noticeable changes in phase behavior!
new work is out from my postdoc! here we looked at how structural isomers of block copolymers exhibited different microphase separation behavior! read it in @MacroJrnls_ACS: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs… (1/2)
The Nealey group potluck was not only a great way to enjoy the company of great scientific colleagues, but also to find out that our friends are equally talented in their kitchens - a roaring success on all counts! 🧑🔬🧑🍳
We're very excited for our @ZhongyangWang and the start of his independent career @UAChBE! We can't wait to watch all that you do soon - thanks for everything you've contributed here!
@UAChBE is excited to announce that Zhongyang Wang will be joining our department as a professor in the fall of this year! @ZhongyangWang is currently a Postdoctoral scholar at the @UofC, where he has contributed to impressive research on electronic transport.

Researchers at UChicago’s Pritzker Molecular Engineering developed a “mix and match” platform for self-assembling semiconductors. The new approach, published in Nature Materials, creates patterns on the nanometer scale—smaller than commercial transistors.

The newest paper out of the Nealey group is out! We are very proud of the work accomplished here, and this 🧵 from @whitneysloo sums it up very nicely. Well done to everyone involved in this collaborative and rewarding effort!
it's finally here!! very excited to share our latest work out in @NatureMaterials on the design and synthesis of A-b-(B-r-C) copolymers for lithographic applications! huge shoutout to @GroupNealey & @StuartJRowan for their leadership nature.com/articles/s41563-0…
Also very scary for Halloween: imagining a Nealey group without Whitney 🙀🎃
crazy to think I have just ONE MONTH left as a postdoc with @GroupNealey
don't know what makes this halloween scarier: papers that need to be written or the house that needs to be packed
The Nealey Group has a new group photo! That means one thing for the Twitterverse #NewProfilePic

Imagine camouflage that automatically blends in with your background or a sensor that changes color when exposed to volatile compounds. New work in blue phase liquid crystals takes a step toward making this tech a reality.

@GroupNealey @JuandePablo6
New paper from Nealey and de Pablo group. We use chemical patterns to make "giant", polymeric single photonic crystals. Congratulations to the whole team and first authors @emersic90 (Tadej Emeršič) and Kushal Bagchi. To learn more check out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
