dc.description.abstract | The recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals have been reported to exhibit very large dielectric permittivity values. Here, we report a systematic investigation of the dielectric behavior of a prototypical ferroelectric nematogen by varying the thickness of the parallel capacitor measuring cell. While in the non-polar high temperature nematic phase results show only slight differences due to slight variations of the alignment, the measured permittivity values in the ferroelectric nematic phase show a linear dependence on the cell thickness. It is also shown that the characteristic relaxation frequency decreases inversely proportionally to the thickness. The results are discussed in terms of three different available models based on different underlying mechanisms, accounting for cancellation of the probe electric fields by polarization reorientation or by ionic charges, or based on a recently proposed continuous phenomenological model. | es_ES |
