  • Abstract
    Two chiral liquid crystalline compounds have been investigated, namely 4-(1-methylheptyloxycarbonyl) phenyl-4′nonylbiphenyl-4-carboxylate (MHPNBC), 3-(2-fluor-octyloxy)-6-(4octyl-phenyl) pyridine (FOOPP) to study the SmA∗–SmC∗ transition. For both substances strong electroclinic effect is observed in the SmA∗ phase what indicates that it is the so-called de Vries SmA∗ phase. To study the paralectric-ferroelectric de Vries type transition electrooptic, dielectric as well as SAXS methods have been applied.
