Abstract

Unsaturated fatty acids arachidonicurn and elaidicwn acids with liquid crystal Sit properties were investigated. These aci4s have an important role in biologicel membrane.The electrical meastie' rements showed nonlinear dielectrical properties and ferroelectri.city.Optical nonlinear behaviour, dependent on temperature, distan— ce, cell thickness, incidence angle and incident optical laser po.•wer was aimlised.Phe samplçs Were ittilised like nonlinear lens and in an all—optical bistable device.
