Correlation Function Approach to the Study of Raman Band Shapes of Liquid Crystals

  • Chapter

Abstract

Correlation functions computed from vibrational spectroscopic band shapes can yield information about liquid crystals, but they must be applied with care. This paper outlines the approach to be used, and shows results for one case 4,cyano, 4’octyloxybiphenyl.
