Structure of blue phase of cholesteric liquid crystals
The circular dichroism of blue phases was measured under normal and oblique incidence of light. It is demonstrated that the low-temperature blue phase has a body-centered cubic structure, while the high-temperature phase has a simple cubic structure. The orientation of structures in the specimen is determined. The magnitudes of the Fourier coefficients of the dielectric-constant tensor of both structures are estimated.
