摘要
This paper reports the results of calculating the disjoining pressure and average thickness of smectic layers in free-standing liquid-crystal films heated above the temperature of breakdown of the smectic order in the bulk of the mesogens. The effect of the disjoining pressure on the reflectivity of free-standing smectic-A films with different numbers of smectic layers has been studied. The results of the calculations agree with the experimental study of the reflectivity of free-standing smectic-A films in the optical wavelength range.
