In 1985 he obtained the position ofprofesor titular of organic chemistry at the University of Zaragoza. Since 1985 he has been at the Institute of Materials Science of Arag6n ( I C M A ) and vvus Vice-Director of the institute from 1987 to 1991. His research interests include ferroelectric liquid crystals and metallomesogens of both low and high molecular weight. Luis Oriol Langa studied chemistry at the University of Zaragoza. In 1990 he completed his Ph.D. under the supervision of Dr. Serrano and in 1991 he joined the Escuela Universitaria Politecnica de Huesca as lecturer of chemistry. In 1993 he spent time at the Philips Reseurch Laboratories in Eindhoven studying processing technologies for optoelectronic liquid crystal materials. His main research interests lie in the synthesis and properties of liquid crystalline polymers. Adv.

Synthetic Approaches to Metallomesogenic PolymersIn order to introduce metal atoms into polymeric chains three general approaches[7b1 can be used and these are schematically represented in Figure 2 for one-dimensional polymers. ; i . > VCH Veukagsggrsriirchaff mbH. 0-69469 Weinheim, 1995 09.~S-9648/9S/0404-03S2 $5.00 + .2SiO Adv.

Electron‐Transfer Studies of trans‐Platinum Bis(acetylide) Complexes

“…The interest in these compounds results from their wide structural versatility and their numerous properties that allow them to be used as liquid crystalline, [33,34] luminescent, [35,36] or nonlinear optical materials. [37] These features are caused by their rigid structures and pronounced π-electron conjugation.…”

Metallo-supramolecular modules as a paradigm for materials science

“…Owing to the Cu(II) centers, these polymers are paramagnetic and a weak exchange interaction of antiferromagnetic character between the copper centers was detected. Although many other systems have been reported in the literature [57], strong coupling between the metal centers, and, therefore, cooperative phenomena are generally not observed because the distance between the metal centers is too large [58]. The rich chemistry of terpyridines has afforded a number of other interesting ligands with photoluminescent properties, as reported by Würthner and co-workers [59,60], as well as chiral coordination polymers [61,62].…”

Structural characterization and properties of an azopolymer arranged in Langmuir and Langmuir–Blodgett films

“…In this territory one can find cholesteric materials [1], ferroelectrics [2], electroactive polymers [3], ionogenic and metal-containing polymers [4], photochromic polymers [5], and dendrimers [6]. In recent years special attention has been given to the synthesis, characterization, and practical application of photoactive polymer systems that offer fascinating advantages in molecular and supramolecular design as well as a degree of control over optical properties [7,8].…”
