Abstract

We have synthesized and investigated a new chiral dopant. It belongs to the derivatives of p-terphenyldicarboxylic acid and has twisting power in the smectic C* mixture much higher than any chiral compound of this series known before. The ferroelectric liquid crystal mixtures on the base of achiral SmC matrix and the new chiral dopant have been elaborated and there optical and electro-optical properties were investigated.
