By using various couples of ferroelectric liquid crystals with molecular structures which were only different in the core center in each couple, the effect of the bond moment C=O at the center of core on ferroelectricity could be studied. The bond moment C=O at the center of the core was found to enhance the spontaneous polarization except for one case.
