Abstract :
We demonstrate a bendable single substrate polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (PSBP LC) display using bar coater technique. Blue phase temperature range and electro-optical properties of a single glass or a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate PSBP LC cells were investigated. Moreover, the effect of confinement on the conventional PSBP LC cell was reported.
