“…for 5CB at 0V and 20V was 0.05𝜇𝑠 0.17𝜇𝑠, while for MBBA it was 0.04𝜇𝑠 and 0.05𝜇𝑠. The main cause for this phenomenon is that the molecules require more time to return to their initial state with increasing voltage [15].…”

The dielectric anisotropy (〖∆ε〗^') is the response of the LC molecules to an applied electric field. In this study, the dielectric properties of 4-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and N-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-4-butylaniline (MBBA) nematic liquid crystals with positive and negative dielectric anisotropy were investigated in detail. In addition, a structure with zero dielectric anisotropy was obtained by mixing MBBA and 5CB liquid crystals in certain rate (1:0.02). The behavior of the samples under 0V and 20V voltages was investigated in detail. Dielectric measurements were made with dielectric spectroscopy technique, which is a powerful method to investigate the molecular interaction mechanisms of liquid crystal materials, at a frequency of 1 kHz-10 MHz and a voltage of 0-20 V at room temperature. Some important parameters such as dielectric anisotropy (∆ε^'), relaxation frequency (f_R), relaxation time (τ) were determined for the samples. When electric field is applied to nematic liquid crystals, it is seen that, depending on the voltage, the relaxation frequency decreases, and the relaxation time increases.
