Chirality exists in the isotropic liquid above blue phase III

The chirality of spherical liquid crystal droplets was investigated in this study. We report the effect of confinement on blue phase III (BPIII) spheres. We investigated the behaviours of the spherical BPIII droplets under the absence of surfactants or nanoparticles, spherical droplets in water, and polymerised capsules in air. Optical activity was observed between the transparent isotropic liquid phase and the bluish BPIII in the spherical...
