Abstract

Results of systematic investigations carried out in our laboratory on the nonlinear dielectric effect (NDE) in the critical mixtures of liquids and of liquid crystals are discussed and systematized. The objective of these studies was to determine experimentally the parameters of the critical NDE and to attempt to apply this research method to an examination of various aspects of critical phenomena. Also discussed are the most recent results.

  35. The observation of xc changes is connected with Eq. (7), i.e., with the appearance of ΔT in the temperature, power-like, behavior. However the nonzero value of ΔT may be introduced only if it is larger than the experimental error of detection of the phase separation temperature.
