Directed self-assembly of soft 3D photonic crystals for holograms with omnidirectional circular-polarization selectivity
Controlling the alignment of blue phase liquid crystals is challenging. Here, electric-field induced phase transitions are exploited to control the crystal orientation of blue phase I, and applied to the fabrication of holograms with omnidirectional circular-polarization selectivity.
