We study the liquid crystal properties of nanowires (NW) of silver (Ag) as a function of flow of the solvent. We are interested in the structure intermediate between the liquid crystal phase and the isotropic phase, known as the heterogeneous phase, and how preferentially "ordered" this phase becomes with flow. This heterogeneous phase refers to that phase where the NW's are aligned in general along one direction, like a liquid crystal, but from NW to NW they vary in their angular orientation.
