The phase transition behavior was investigated by DSC and polarized optical microscope. Two-ring liquid crystal compounds exhibited no mesogenic phase or only a monotropic smectic A phase. The longer fluori- natal alkyl chain on the three-ring was advantageous to the formation of smectic phase. The mesogens with chiral center located between fluorinated tail and mesogenic core exhibited chiral smectic C phase and other smectic phases when the alkoxyl adhering to the other side of the mesogenic core was of intermediate length.展开更多
