PAa05 X線小角散乱と顕微鏡による強誘電性液晶の層回転現象の同時観察

抄録

The smectic layers rotate by applying an asymmetric electric field. We develop a system to measure simultaneously the polarizing microscopy and small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), and have investigated this phenomenon. The rotation angle of the Bragg spot was approximately equal to that of the stripe texture. Bragg spots split in azimuthal direction, and it means that layers can rotate with keeping horizontal chevron structure.
