Abstract
Structure measurements were carried out by neutron diffraction on the glassy nematic liquid crystalline and crystalline phases of MBBA. The change of optical spectra of intermolecular vibrations was also followed by Raman scattering around the phase transition from the fast-cooled state to the crystalline one. Parallel investigations of solid state polymorphism were also carried out using both methods.
