A polymer‐stabilized and polymer‐dispersed blue phase (PS‐PDBP) device operating at room temperature is demonstrated. The encapsulated blue phase liquid crystal droplets were formed in a polymer solution. With polymer stabilization, the blue phase temperature range of the blue phase dispersion was remarkably increased more than 53 ° C. In this presentation, we also describe the electro‐optical properties of the PS‐PDBP films made from different compositions.
