Polar liquid crystals: structures, phase transitions and properties
Podoliak, Natalia ; Novotná, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Perkowski, Pawel (referee) ; Valentová, Helena (referee)
In the thesis the structure-property relations of newly synthesised liquid crystalline compounds have been investigated with respect to the length of the non-chiral chain, number of lactate units or the lateral substitutions in the molecular core. Such promising for applications phenomena as orthoconic properties and de Vries behaviour have been found and studied for certain compounds. Besides, the antiferroelectric, TGB, hexatic phases have been observed for some compounds of the studied series. Such unique phenomenon as re-entrancy has been observed for a few compounds of the series under investigation and binary mixtures of one compound with neighbouring homologues have been prepared and studied.

Technolgy of materials preparation for the high sensitivity infrared detectors
Novotný, Jan ; Zelinka, Jiří ; Franc, J.
Single crystals of triglycine sulphate (TGS) doped with L-alanin, lysin and with Co.sup.2+.sup., Cd.sup.2+.sup. and PO.sub.4./sub..sup.3-.sup. were grown from aqueous solutions by means of slow cooling method. Concentration of doping elements varied from 5 to 20mol. per cent. Morphology, domain structure and P-E hysteresis loops have been investigated. TGS single crystals doped with Co.sup.2+.sup. and PO.sub.4./sub..sup.3-.sup. show the inernal fields as high as 217 kV/m with peculiarities in the hysteresis loops. The best hysteresis loop has been obtained on TGS crystal doped with Lysin and Cd.sup.2+.sup. ions.
