Abstract
hybridization in the CQDs which form a strong coupling and develop a dipolar ordering in the systems. Various relaxation frequencies were increased with the incarceration of CQDs in the AFLC mixture. Overall, the different studies suggest that the doped CQDs are very well settled in between the host molecules without disturbing the molecular ordering of the hosts. Such results are encouraging and reveal the potential applicability of the CQD doped systems to produce highly efficient tuneable optical devices and other multifaceted applications.
