Abstract
For a solution of optically active compounds in liquid crystals, the infrared rotatory dispersion can be measured by Fourier transform spectroscopy. The results of a resolution enhancement by Fourier deconvolution and second derivative approach for the spectral features of the so-called A-Cotton effects are discussed. The experimental spectrum shown was recorded from a solution of cholesteryl oleyl carbonate in liquid crystal MBBA.
