Abstract

In this paper, some of the most relevant H-2 NMR experiments with the aim of determining the biaxial nature of the nematic phase in several thermotropic liquid crystals are overviewed. Advantages and disadvantages of the technique are discussed. This contribution is an extract of the lecture held in Erice (Sicily) in occasion of the "18th Course - Liquid crystal nanostructures and self-assembling: from organic electronics to metamaterials", the 2nd School of the Italian Liquid Crystal Society.
