摘要
We report a polymer-stabilised blue-phase liquid crystal (BPLC) in an in-plane-switching (IPS) cell with negligible hysteresis and good stability. Long ultraviolet (UV) wavelength and top-side (no IPS electrode) exposure create uniform polymer network, which in turn helps to suppress hysteresis. The effect of photoinitiator is also investigated. Although a BPLC precursor without photoinitiator requires a higher UV dosage to stabilise the polymer network, it is favourable for keeping high resistivity and reducing image sticking.
