For greater / j, the frequency of the loss maximum is lower. The ratio v Lm(p2)/v Lm(pi) is equal to the ratio p /pi. The factor w, estimated from Eq. (174), is equal to 36. The limiting displacement s m 0.2, introduced in Eq. (191a), determines the total (viz., in both directions relative to the symmetry axis) transverse shift with the amplitude 2bm 0.57 A. This value comprises...

As witli tlie nematic phase, a chiral version of tlie smectic C phase has been observed and is denoted SniC. In tliis phase, tlie director rotates around tlie cone generated by tlie tilt angle [9,32]. This phase is helielectric, i.e. tlie spontaneous polarization induced by dipolar ordering (transverse to tlie molecular long axis) rotates around a helix. However, if tlie helix is unwound by external forces such as surface interactions, or electric fields or by compensating tlie pitch in a mixture, so tliat it becomes infinite, tlie phase becomes ferroelectric. This is tlie basis of ferroelectric liquid crystal displays (section C2.2.4.4). If tliere is an alternation in polarization direction between layers tlie phase can be ferrielectric or antiferroelectric. A smectic A phase foniied by chiral molecules is sometimes denoted SiiiA, altliough, due to the untilted symmetry of tlie phase, it is not itself chiral. This notation is strictly incorrect because tlie asterisk should be used to indicate the chirality of tlie phase and not tliat of tlie constituent molecules. 

In the transverse direction of the quadrupoles, an ion will oscillate among the poles in a complex fashion, depending on its mass, the voltages (U, V), and the frequency (to) of the alternating RF potential. By suitable choices of U, V, and to, it can be arranged that only ions of one mass will oscillate stably about the central axis in this case, all other ions will oscillate... 

Chiral Smectic. In much the same way as a chiral compound forms the chiral nematic phase instead of the nematic phase, a compound with a chiral center forms a chiral smectic C phase rather than a smectic C phase. In a chiral smectic CHquid crystal, the angle the director is tilted away from the normal to the layers is constant, but the direction of the tilt rotates around the layer normal in going from one layer to the next. This is shown in Figure 10. The distance over which the director rotates completely around the layer normal is called the pitch, and can be as small as 250 nm and as large as desired. If the molecule contains a permanent dipole moment transverse to the long molecular axis, then the chiral smectic phase is ferroelectric. Therefore a device utilizing this phase can be intrinsically bistable, paving the way for important appHcations. 

Magnesium alloys have a Young s modulus of elasticity of approximately 45 GPa (6.5 x 10 psi). The modulus of rigidity or modulus of shear is 17 GPa (2.4 X 10 psi) and Poisson s ratio is 0.35. Poisson s ratio is the ratio of transverse contracting strain to the elongation strain when a rod is stretched by forces at its ends parallel to the rod s axis. 

At equilibrium, the transverse magnetization equals zero. A net magnetization vector rotated off the -axis creates transverse magnetization.
