Abstract

The electric field induced tilt angles and the corresponding optical transmission properties are presented for two homologs and a mixture which exhibit a strong electroclinic effect at ambient temperatures. Tilt angles as large as 15 degree(s) are reported. The relationship between the molecular tilt angle and the transmission properties are emphasized.
