Abstract: We have theoretically and experimentally studied the nonlinear dielectric response under large orientational fluctuations near the Sm-A–Sm-Cα* phase transition point in a chiral smectic liquid crystal. The third-order nonlinear dielectric response due to the fluctuations was observed in the vicinity of the transition point. By using it, we have successfully observed the soft-mode condensation inducing the Sm-A–Sm-Cα* phase transition.
