Abstract
The pretilt angle in the nematic phase is related to two different sur face dependent factors, while the quality of surface stabilized ferroe lectric liquid crystal (SSFLC) devices is dependent on only one of the m. We have synthesized two series of polyalkyleneimides and found that the pretilt angles for thick nematic cells are not related to the con e angles in SSFLC cells.
