Innovating Science STEM Investigations, Make Your Own Crystal Thermometer

Students explore materials science and engineering while learning about an interesting state of matter: liquid crystals. Liquid crystals have an ordered structure like a solid, but are also fluid like a liquid. The molecular-level structure of a liquid crystal can be affected by changes in its environment, such as electric field or temperature, which can lead to changes in its macroscopic properties, such as color. In this experiment, students mix three chemicals in different ratios to form four different liquid crystal mixtures that are sensitive to temperature.
