摘要
Smectic layer structures of some surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystal cells were studied using high-resolution X-ray analysis. The cells were constructed of two glass plates coated with a polymer aligning film rubbed in parallel and exhibited a typical chevron layer structure. The correlation between the layer tilt angle and the molecular tilt angle was investigated in detail, taking into account the differences between the molecular tilt and apparent tilt angles. It was confirmed that the layer tilt angle correlated with the molecular tilt angle though it was slightly smaller, and the ratio of the layer tilt angle to the molecular tilt angle gradually decreased as the molecular tilt angle increased.
