Many dilute solutions or suspensions of rod-like particles become birefringent when subjected to electric fields. On switching off the applied field the birefringence decays away as the particles revert from an ordered to a random orientation state. For polydisperse suspensions it is possible to ev

An analysis is presented for the decay process encountered in transient electric birefringence experiments. The method is developed for dilute and polydisperse suspensions of constant thickness disc-like particles. If the distribution function describing the spread in particle diameters is of a two

The decay of the electrically induced transient birefringence, for a dilute polydis~erse suspension of ellipsoidally shaped particles of constant axial ratio, is analysed. It is shown that, for the decay process, the initial slopes of the natural logarithm of the normalised birefringence versus time
