Abstract
A relatively simple and cost-effective method to realise a novel long-period fibre grating (LPFG) based on blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) composites was proposed and experimentally demonstrated by implementing photopolymerisation-induced phase separation (PIPS) through a binary photomask. The BPLC-polymer composite zones were obtained by a process of periodic ultraviolet light with phase separation of the BPLC molecules and UV-curable monomer...
