摘要

Blue phase liquid crystals (BPLCs) possess remarkable optical properties, including selective visible light reflection, sub-millisecond response times and wide viewing angles without the need for alignment layers. These attributes make them highly promising for advanced display technologies. However, the narrow temperature range and high operating fields required for blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) devices present significant challenges. Consequently, the integration of liquid crystals (LCs) with nanoparticles (NPs) to form BPLC composites has garnered considerable attention. This review summarizes experimental and synthetic methodologies, compares design strategies, and discusses both current cum potential applications of these composite materials.
