摘要：
New compound showing a direct SmA*-SmCA* phase transition was synthesised. As far as authors know there are a few pure compounds showing para- and antiferroelectric phases without SmC* between them. Direct current (DC) field applied into a planar-oriented cell induces ferroelectric SmC* phase in an investigated compound. Typical for SmC*, Goldstone mode starts to be detectable. DC field also shifts down the temperature of a SmCA* phase creation. Moreover, modes in the appearing antiferroelectic phase are enhanced by DC field. This paper shows and discusses relations between modes detected in SmA*, SmCA* and SmC* (SmC* phase - nucleated by DC field) phases. Parameters of observed modes are calculated using the Cole-Cole relaxation model and a calculation procedure useful especially for high frequency relaxations (higher than 200 kHz).
