The orientational behaviour of some liquid crystals with various molecular structures was studied by means of the Raman scattering depolarization method. The Raman scattering spectra of linearly polarized light were recorded as a function of temperature in the nematic phase. On the basis of these spectra the order parameters 〈P2〉 and 〈P4〉 as well as the molecular distribution function were determined. The obtained data were compared with those estimated on the basis of polarized light absorption and emission measurements. The influence of the molecular structure on the orientational order of liquid crystals was discussed.
