Temperature-induced inversion of rotation of the polarization plane of light in liquid crystals
The temperature-induced inversion of rotation of the polarization plane of light in the isotropic phase of cholesteric and smectic A phase of ferroelectric liquid crystals is studied. The presence of inversion in the isotropic phase indicates that the mean-field approximation cannot be used to describe the intermediate blue phases.
