Abstract
The subject of this thesis is the discovery and characterization of the lyotropic analog of the well-known thermotropic ferroelectric SmC* liquid crystal phase. In addition to providing evidence for the existence of this previously unknown phase, the main focus of the work presented is on the investigation of its structural properties and chirality effects.
