聚合物稳定蓝相（PSBP）的一个突出特点是它不需要形成取向膜，这需要高温烘烤过程。因此，PSBP可以实现塑料基板上的柔性液晶显示器（LCD）。在这项研究中，在不使用传统三明治型电池的情况下，对单个基板上的蓝相（BP）进行了聚合物稳定化，并且证明其电光特性与三明治型PSBP LCD电池的电光特性相似。实验表明，需要排除抑制自由基聚合的氧，以完成蓝相中的聚合物稳定化。图形摘要
ABSTRACT One outstanding feature of the polymer-stabilised blue phase (PSBP) is that it is unnecessary to form an alignment film, which requires a high-temperature baking process. Therefore, PSBPs may enable flexible liquid crystal displays (LCDs) on plastic substrates. In this study, polymer stabilisation of a blue phase (BP) on a single substrate was performed without using a conventional sandwich-type cell, and the electro-optical properties are demonstrated to be similar to those of a sandwich-type PSBP LCD cell. It was experimentally shown that the oxygen which inhibits radical polymerisation is required to be excluded in order to complete the polymer stabilisation in blue phase. Graphical Abstract
