Аннотация: Experimental values of the mean polarizability of molecules, (gamma) over bar, and components of the Lorentz tensor, L-j, in the nematic and smectic A phases are obtained for a homologous series of n-alkyl-p-(4-ethoxybenzylideneamino)-alpha-methylcinnamates. Dependences of the (gamma) over bar and L-j values on the mesophase temperature, the orientational order parameter S of molecules, and the number n in the homologous series are revealed. The quadratic dependence of (gamma) over bar (S) in the nematic and smectic phases is established that is invariant with respect to the nematic-smectic A transition. Polarizability densities of the molecular core and the alkyl chain are found from the monotone decreasing dependence (gamma) over bar (n)/v (where v is volume per one molecule) in the smectic phase. The presence (or absence) of the odd-even alternation of L-j(n) in the nematic (smectic) phase is shown. A monotone decrease in the Lorentz tensor anisotropy L with an increase in n is revealed in the smectic phase, and limiting values L-j(n -> infinity) are determined.
