Brillouin Scattering of Light in a Cholesteric Liquid Crystal.
Abstract
Brillouin scattering was used to study the hypersonic properties of cholesteryl palmitate in the liquid crystal-liquid phase transition region. Contrary to the results of similar measurements by Durand and Rao, no anomalous change in either the velocity or the attenuation of the hypersonic waves was observed at the transition. (Author)
