Liquid crystal physics

a frustrated chiral liquid crystal phase made of a lattice of double-twist cylinders and disclination lines, stable in a narrow temperature range.

In liquid crystal physics, blue phase refers to a frustrated chiral liquid crystal phase made of a lattice of double-twist cylinders and disclination lines, stable in a narrow temperature range. This meaning comes from Meiboom (1981) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
