Potenial_ElectricField_PS-BPLC_Microlens: The calculations of the electric potential and fields in the polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystals between two parallel electrodes

Abstract

We present software for calculating the analytical distributions of potential and field in microlens made of polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystals. The microlens is located between two electrodes with a circular opening on the upper electrode. The program is encoded using the derived analytical solution formulas of the potential and electric field. It is faster, more energy-saving, and has less memory configuration than the finite-difference equation method solving by using the Poisson Equation with boundary conditions. The software outputs relevant Data files and a MATLAB code that can draw the distributions of potential, electric field, and directors, allowing the calculations visualized.
