摘要
The current understanding of the ordering and dynamics of backbones, flexible spacers and side groups in side chain liquid crystalline polymers (SCLCPs) is reviewed. Comparisons are made between theoretical work and the experimental results from small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS). Alignment of SCLCPs by AC and DC electric fields. as studied using DRS, optical microscopy, and transmitted light techniques are also reviewed, and the less well understood field of surface alignment is mentioned.
