Abstract:
Large electroclinic effect in the smectic-A* phase and stability of smectic-C*
variant phases are investigated in detail. Investigation of large electroclinic effect
in the smectic-A* phase is one of the recent topics, and stability of smectic-C*
variant phases is one of the less established topics in the field of chiral smectic
liquid crystals. Various new physical phenomena were observed and interpreted.
