Abstract
The values of magnetic anisotropy of smectic A-phases for a number of lanth anide complexes (LH)(2)LM(NO3)(2), where M = Nd, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, and Er , and LH is a Schiff's base), were measured. These values are two orders of magnitude larger than those normally found for diamagnetic liquid crystals and are well correlated with magnetic birefringence constants and molecula r magnetic anisotropy of nonmesogenic lanthanide diketonates.
