Abstract
A new ferroelectric liquid crystalline compound 4-(p-butyloxy-2-chloro-tyrosinate)-2-hydroxy-benzylidene-4'-nonylaniline, abbreviated as BCTHBN, was characterized by various techniques. Phase sequence and transition temperature data were obtained by thermal microscopy and DSC. The values of spontaneous polarization, tilt angle, response times and viscosity, along with the wide thermal range of the SmC* phase, make this compound a candidate for applicational studies. Dielectric studies included variation of capacitance with temperature and calculation of activation energies in the soft and Goldstone modes.
