Polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystals (PSBPLC) within wide temperature range attract many attentions
such as fast response time short as sub-millisecond
alignment-free and polarization independent. It has potential huge application for PSBPLC both in display technology and optical-electronic devices. The micro phase model and Kerr effect for PSBPLC were described.This paper introduced for PSBPLC development in microlens technology including main kinds of microlens structures such as BPLC microlens with hole pattern
adaptive BPLC microlens with curved electrode
BPLC GRIN microlens
BPLC microlens with resistive film and BPLC microlens with ZnO nano-rod electrode.
