Chirality and nanoparticles enforced stabilization of topological defects in liquid crystals

Author(s): Apparao Gudimalla (Author), Samo Kralj (Supervisor), Sabu Thomas (Co-Supervisor), Brigita Rožič (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2021

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Of our main interest in this work is the stabilization of assemblies of topological defects (TDs) in liquid crystals (LCs). Due to the topological origin of TDs, the physics of defects is of interest for all branches of physics, including condensed matter systems, particle physics, and cosmology. LCs represent an …

PURY: A Topology and geometry parameter library for small molecules

Author(s): Miha Andrejašič (Author), Dušan Turk (Supervisor)

Year: 2009

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The number and variety of macromolecular structures in complexes with "hetero" ligands is growing. The need for fast delivery of correct geometric parameters for their refinement, which is often crucial for understanding the biological relevance of the structure, is growing correspondingly. The current standard for describing protein structures is the …
