He participated in the discovery of smectic C liquid crystal phase.

An example of a discotic mesogen type rigid core is a triphenylene based disk molecule, where the hexagonal columnar liquid crystal phase exists between the 66 ! ( crystalline solid phase ) and 122 ! ( isotropic liquid phase ) temperature range, Figure 3.

An example of a calamitic mesogen type rigid core is a benzyl cyanide based rod molecule, where the smectic A liquid crystal phase exists between the 60 ! ( crystalline solid phase ) and 62 ! ( isotropic liquid phase ) temperature range, Figure 5.

The analysis of 31 P-NMR spectra of lipids could provide a wide range of information about lipid bilayer packing, phase transitions ( gel phase, physiological liquid crystal phase, ripple phases, non bilayer phases ), lipid head group orientation / dynamics, and elastic properties of pure lipid bilayer and as a result of binding of proteins and other biomolecules.
