In a series of mixtures of cholesteryl oleylcarbonate and cholcster~l chloride the temperature dependence of the molnr volume V hss been determined by dilatometiic measurcmcnts near the cholestcric to smcctic-A phase transition. It could be shown from rhr Y(7) curves rhar rhc phase lransition change
The orientational order S of a dichroic dye dissolved in a liquid crystal has been determined in the nematic, smectic A and smectic B phase of 4-n-hexyloxybenzylidene-4'-nhexylaniline. The used method is based on the absorption measurement of unpolarized light in a homeotropic oriented liquid crysta
The deuterium NMR spectrum of 4-methoxy-da-3,5-dz-4'-cyanobiphenyl has been recorded as a function of temperature in its monotropic nematic phase. The particularly simple molecular structure for this nematogen allows three elements of the Saupe ordering matrix to be determined from the spectral spli
