摘要

A polymer stabilised liquid crystal film with the order and the molecular alignment of a smectic-A phase at a microscopic level, but with the planar molecular alignment of a chiral nematic phase at a macroscopic level, was prepared. This kind of order and alignment of the molecules of the liquid crystal resulted in the film reflecting circularly polarised incident light with the bandwidth of the spectrum over the wavelength range of 300-2500nm.
