Interrogating helical nanorod self-assembly with fractionated cellulose nanocrystal suspensions

Aligning cholesteric liquid crystal nanorods is key to their optical properties, yet challenging to achieve in artificial systems. Here cellulose nanorods are fractionated from suspension, revealing that nanorod length correlates with helical twist, allowing uniformly violet films to be created.
