Spin-lattice relaxation times of acetonitrile, aligned by an electric field, have been measured. In contrast to earlier investigations on other polar liquids, no electric-field effects on T1 could be established. The apparent discrepancy is discussed in terms of electric conduction and inhomogeneity
Elastic deformations induced by electric fields were investigated in nematic layers of two thermotropically mesogenic aromatic polyesters, with different structures of flexible spacers, and of their two low molecular weight analogues. It was shown by means of the polarizing microscopy that, in a pla
