| dc.description.abstract | We have studied tilted surface layers in the bulk SmA temperature window of one liquid crystal using null
transmission ellipsometry. Five distinct nonplanar surface structures were observed. We present analyses of the
tilt and azimuthal profiles of the structures and examine the transitions between the structures. The transitions
are identified as a double reentrant synclinic-anticlinic-synclinic-anticlinic transition. Meanwhile, the transitions
also display reentrant ferroelectric-antiferroelectric-ferroelectric behavior. | en |
