## Abstract New photo‐crosslinkable side‐chain liquid‐crystalline methacrylate polymers comprising __m__‐[4′‐(__n__‐cinnamoyloxyalkoxy)biphenyl‐4‐yloxy]alkyl groups (__m__, __n__ = 2, 6) were synthesized. All polymers exhibit a nematic liquid‐crystalline phase depending on the spacer length (5a–5d)

## Abstract The static and dynamic Kerr effects in a liquid‐crystalline (LC) side‐end polymer with a laterally substituted mesogenic fragment are studied. The characteristic relaxation times of the two different relaxation processes observed diverge at the same temperature. The main feature of the
The orientation relaxation behavior of a stretched side-chain liquid crystalline polymer (SCLCP) on a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) film under strain was investigated through infrared dichroism at temperatures near its phase transitions. We found a reorientation of the aligned mesogens over the smectic
