摘要：

A nearly symmetric alkoxyphenylbenzoate monomer is found to exhibit a transition from perpendicular to tilted alignment at a lecithin-treated glass substrate several degrees below the nematic-isotropic phase transition. By means of the Freedericksz transition the coefficient B of the anchoring energy has been obtained. It is found that B rapidly decreases, and the tilt susceptibility increases on approaching this transition. © 1990 Taylor & Francis Ltd.
