Resumen:
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance proton spin-lattice measurements in phentylcyano-phenylcyclohexane liquid crystal at the Larmor frequencies 1.235 MHz and 48 kHz in a temperature range above the nematic-isotropic phase transition are reported. The Landau.De Gennes theory for nematic-isotropic phase transition is used to analize the temperature dependence of the spin-lattice correlation functions. We conclude that the low frequency approximation can be applied only when the experiment is carried out at Larmor frequencies in the kHz range.
