Abstract

For many years scientists have tried to study `improper' spontaneous polarization occurred in ferroelectric liquid crystals. In this work we present our theoretical and experimental results concerning behavior of the spontaneous polarization P_S of several compounds with the `ordinary' spontaneous polarization as well as P_S with sing inversion.
