Although the great sensitivity of liquid crystals (LCs), LC based chemoresponsive system have relatively poor selectivity and controllability. We propose chemoresponsive LC system integrated with organic ionics (OI). We rationally design the OI with headgroup, aliphatic tail and counter ion. The system exhibits not only high selectivity/sensitivity to target chemical, but also controllability.
