Temperature-dependent optical properties of some mixtures nematic liquid crystal
The presence of optical anisotropy in liquid crystals (LCs) has caused these materials to have dual refractive indices: ordinary (n(o)) and extra-ordinary (n(e)). Many fundamental information about LCs can be found by looking at these refractive indices. In this work, the refractive indices of four...

Sumario: | The presence of optical anisotropy in liquid crystals (LCs) has caused these materials to have dual refractive indices: ordinary (n(o)) and extra-ordinary (n(e)). Many fundamental information about LCs can be found by looking at these refractive indices. In this work, the refractive indices of four mixtures nematic liquid crystal (NLC) have been studied as a function of temperature, and the relevant functions were then calculated. Subsequently, the order parameter of mentioned LCs was determined using three methods: Vuks, Haller, and the effective geometry parameter method. It was concluded that the obtained values are not significantly different and exhibit the same temperature dependence. The obtained results were evaluated in relation to the approach utilized. |
