Electro-optical switching with low voltage, free hysteresis and fast response speed is achieved in a facile manner by dispersing a small amount of ferroelectric nanoparticles (NPs) into blue phase liquid crystal. The large dipole moment of NPs contributes to the hysteresis-free switching, whereas the low voltage operation results from the introduction of the ferroelectric properties inherent to the NPs.
