摘要
The template effects on stability of twist structure liquid crystals (LCs) were investigated. By refilling a cholesteric LC (CLC) of different pitch into a blue phase LC (BPLC) template or a sphere phase LC (SPLC) template, a multi-phase and multi-pitch twist structure LC, which includes the refilling CLC and intrinsic template BPLC or SPLC, can be fabricated. By refilling a CLC of different chiral pitch into a CLC template, a multi-pitch CLC that includes the refilling CLC and intrinsic CLC, can be fabricated. Twist structure LC devices with multi-phase and multi-pitch show great potential for applications in optical communication, displays, and LC lasing.
