A sequence of tilted smectic phases, SmC-SmF-SmG-SmH, has been observed
in a series of enamino ketone derivatives with a 2-methylbutoxy chiral
terminal group. In spite of the rather weak chiral centre, these compounds
are characterized by high spontaneous polarization (ca. 0.5 µC
cm
-2
), which seems to be induced by the large molecular
tilt (ca. 40°) observed in all mesophases. A memory effect in
the switching process has been observed due to the formation of ion layers
at electrodes. The high hydrogen ion concentration is a result of the
dissociation of hydrogen bonded material under an applied electric
field.
