Abstract
This review examines in some detail the effect on physico-chemical and electro-optical properties of introducing alkoxy groups into the molecular structure of achiral calamitic liquid crystals. The results of this study are compared with those obtained for the corresponding compounds having alkyl and other groups, and are rationalized in terms of existent theories.
