Retention and deformation of the blue phases in liquid crystalline elastomers

Permanently retaining liquid crystalline blue phases in a solid matrix warrants many prospective applications in photonics. Schlafmann and White are able to make a blue phase rubber that retains a crystalline structure upon deformation and responds with angle-dependent color changes.
