Studies of antiferroelectric molecular ordering in a re-entrant nematic mixture
Molecular orientational ordering of the 25% mixture of 60CB in 80CB is studied by refractometry and quasi-static dielectric permittivity measurements. Temperature and pressure dependence of g-factors is investigated in various mesophases. The compatibility of the observed features with molecular models of re-entrance phenomenon is discussed.
