Abstract

Among the achievements of 20th century, there is the origin and violent development of the low-temperature technique and low-temperature spectroscopy of molecular crystals in the polarized light. Many obtained results became possible due to the close cooperation between experiment investigators and theorists. This short review traces the evolution of only one trend in the physics of molecular crystals, namely, the investigation of energetic and spatial structure of molecules from the analysis of electronic spectra of molecular crystals. First, for this purpose the possibilities of using the electronic spectra of molecular crystals at low temperatures benzene derivatives and the electronic spectra of liquid ionic crystals are considered. The results of investigations of the electronic absorption spectra for the new class of liquid crystals, namely, ionic metal-organic smectics are presented. Changes in the structure of doping molecules in the ionic liquid crystals under the influence of the dc electric field are analyzed.
