Abstract: | The interferential method is presented for determining the inclination angle θ of molecules in homogeneously ordered plane-parallel liquid crystalline layers. The essence of the method is the analysis of the changes in the layer transmission caused by the change in conditions of interference. The angle θ is calculated from the exact, explicit relation where from no limitations the size of the angle results. The measuring-stand is described that enabled the method to be put into practice. The results for the PCB layer are presented by way of example. |
