A method of determining the set of four order parameters S , D , P , and C for a ferroelectric liquid crystal, using complementary results for different sample geometries, is presented. IR measurements have been performed for homeotropic, planar heterogeneous and, planar homogenous sample geometries. Orientational order parameters were determined in two frames of reference to obtain complete information on molecular arrangement. Results for the D , P , and C parameters indicate the importance of both the intrinsic and extrinsic biaxialities. The molecular rotation around the long molecular axis is not free, and the carbonyl dipole and plane of the central phenyl ring are oriented close to the tilt plane. It has been found that transition dipole moments show significant correlations, antiparallel for longitudinal dipoles and parallel for transversal ones.
