Abstract
ABSTRACT The results of studies conducted by means complementary methods: differential scanning calorimetry, transmitted light intensity measurements, polarized optical microscopy and electrooptical methods of two new liquid crystal mixtures are presented. The investigated mixtures consist of achiral thiosobenzoates, 7OS5 and 8OS5, and a chiral addition of benzoate, MHOBCO6. In all mixtures there is a wide low temperature range of the existence of the ferroelectric SmC* phase.
期刊介绍:
Phase Transitions is the only journal devoted exclusively to this important subject. It provides a focus for papers on most aspects of phase transitions in condensed matter. Although emphasis is placed primarily on experimental work, theoretical papers are welcome if they have some bearing on experimental results. The areas of interest include:
-structural phase transitions (ferroelectric, ferroelastic, multiferroic, order-disorder, Jahn-Teller, etc.) under a range of external parameters (temperature, pressure, strain, electric/magnetic fields, etc.)
-geophysical phase transitions
-metal-insulator phase transitions
-superconducting and superfluid transitions
-magnetic phase transitions
-critical phenomena and physical properties at phase transitions
-liquid crystals
-technological applications of phase transitions
-quantum phase transitions
Phase Transitions publishes both research papers and invited articles devoted to special topics. Major review papers are particularly welcome. A further emphasis of the journal is the publication of a selected number of small workshops, which are at the forefront of their field.
