We report the low temperature and high frame rate operation limits of a polymer‐stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC). Debye relaxation sets another practical application limit even the temperature is still above melting point. Doping a diluter compound to the BPLC host greatly extends this low temperature operation range in terms of dielectric relaxation frequency and response time.
