摘要：

New stable structures of the liquid crystalline smectic C* phase are observed in free standing films of a material with high spontaneous polarization. A stable configuration of thick films is a stripe of state with an in-plane rotation of the director. In ultra-thin films an anisotropic state was observed. The director fields of the observed structures are modelled and compared with theoretical predictions.
