ABSTRACT In this paper, four kinds of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystals (PS-BPLCs) with different monomer were designed and prepared. The morphology, temperature ranges and electro-optical properties of the blue phase were studied and discussed. The temperature ranges of four BPLCs are more than 90°C, and all samples can be stabilized well at room temperature. Referring to electro-optical performance, on-state voltage for mono-functional monomers systems is reduced from 75 V to 65 V at 497 nm. On-state voltage for tri-functional monomers systems is reduced from 107 V to 85 V at 497 nm. These results are helpful to the application of display and photonic devices. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
