How to split characters of a cell/string in matlab?

I have a question about a code. I have a string array and I would like to split it into pairs, depending the number of elements.
for example I have string 'CHARLES'. I would like to have a cell array with the elements C={CH, HA, AR, RL, LE, ES}. (I mean one cell array with 1x6 (length-1) dimensions)
my code is:
g='CHARLES'
length(g)
for i=1:(length(g)-1)
C=horzcat(g(i),g(i+1))
%charArray(i) = [AL(i){:}]
end
How must I modify my code? Could you please help me?

g='CHARLES';
C = cellstr([g(1:end-1); g(2:end)].').'

Use curly braces to access the content of cell arrays, not parentheses:
C = {'charles','hello','world'};
for k = 1:numel(C)
C{k} = cellstr([C{k}(1:end-1); C{k}(2:end)].').';
end
Checking the content:
C{:}
