Dynamics of fiuctuations, arising below the threshold of the Frederiks transition, were studied in [42]. The fiuctuations are modulated and amplified just above the critical (threshold) strength of the field. 

Threshold Strength. Unfortunately, published measurements of threshold strength seem to be inconsistent. In one case, simple, lightly crosslinked polymers are reported to adhere under threshold conditions with a strength of about 0.1 J/m, close to the value expected from London-Van der Waals bond energies. 

In other cases, the threshold strength for similar polymers has been reported to be much larger, about 1 Resolution of this dis-... 

Measurements show that silane interlinking increases the threshold strength enormously. Fig. 30, to approach the intrinsic (threshold) strength of the polymer. But that is only of the order of 20-100 Obviously, the in-...

In agreement with the theory of De Gennes, the correlation between the threshold strength of a magnetic or electric field and the pitch of the cholesteric helix is defined as follows ...
