Local-field anisotropy in cholesteric liquid crystals
E. M. Aver'yanov L. V. Kirensky Institute of Physics, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Abstract:
The first experimental values of the Lorentz tensor components L j for the cholesteric and smectic A phases of derivatives of cholesterol have been obtained using the dispersion of the refractive indices in the visible range. The temperature dependence of the components L j has been determined; it is invariant with respect to the cholesteric-smectic A phase transition. The effect of the isotropization of the Lorentz and local field tensors with decreasing anisotropy of the molecular polarizability has been revealed.
