Three types of liquid‐crystalline materials with specific molecular structures were investigated using electron diffraction and high resolution imaging. Discotic and smectic liquid crystals were compared with the crystalline state. The superstructure of the sanidic liquid crystals showed effects in the line profiles and contour plots of the electron diffraction patterns.
