摘要: Abstract The cholesteric liquid crystal 4”-(2-methylbutylphenyl)-4′-(2-methylbutyl)-4-biphenyl-carboxylate has a pronounced blue phase (BP). DSC calorimetry shows 3 peaks in the to isotropic transition region. phases are identified by polarizing microscopy. BP two forms which separated first order transition. appears be form of second An applied electric field induces from (1) focal conic phase.
