Twist-bend (TB) phases possess a local helical structure with a pitch length of a few nanometers. X-ray scattering experiments on aligned samples of dimeric and oligomeric materials allows the orientational order parameters, orientational distribution functions and heliconical tilt angles to be calculated.
