Abstract

The electric field effect on the smectic-A - smectic-Co* phase transition of antiferroelectric liquid crystal have been investigated theoretically. A phenomenological theory under DC field has been developed to establish the calculated hysteresis loop and the E (electric field) - T (temperature) phase diagram, in which a tricritical point was found.
