摘要
Magnetic and electrical Freedericksz measurements were performed on the second generation monodendritic liquid crystal G2(OH). The deduced elastic constants were found to be exceptionally anisotropic: the splay elastic constant K11 is more than an order of magnitude larger than the bend elastic constant K33, and the twist constant K22 is approximately twice K33. The results are discussed in terms of molecular conformations.
