Abstract
Deuterium N.M.R. spectroscopy has been used to investigate the orientational ordering of perdeuteriated naphthalene and two perdeuteriated fluorescent probes (pyrene and perylene) dissolved in a discotic nematic micellar phase of potassium laurate/potassium chloride/decanol/water. The results show that the ordering tensors of these probes are not cylindrically symmetric.Keywords
