Impedance of polymer-dispersed liquid crystals modified by carbon nanofibers is studied in fields lower than the threshold field of the director reorientation of a liquid crystal. It is shown that the real and imaginary parts of the impedance obey to the relationship (Zre – X0)2 + (Zim – Y0)2 = R 20 , where X0, Y0, and R0 are the fitting parameters depending on the frequency of the exciting electric field.
