dc.description.abstractWe have reported polymer-dispersed blue-phase (PDBP) liquid-crystal films via polymerization-induced phase separation. PDBP films are prepared by photochemical polymerization of curable crosslinking agent, monomer and blue-phase liquid crystal under an ultraviolet (UV) light. The influences of photoinitiator and weight ratio between monomer/crosslinking agent and blue phase on the electro-optical properties of PDBP liquid-crystal samples are investigated. The electro-optical (E-O) properties of PDBP films are determined in the top-down electro-optical cell. PDBP liquid-crystal films show good E-O properties with high contrast ratio and fast response time.
