This paper proposes a novel composite alignment technique that allows for the creation of dual alignment structures on glass substrates. These structures include both hybrid alignment (HA) and vertical alignment (VA). We investigate the growth mechanism of blue phase liquid crystals (BPLCs) within these structures. This research is expected to significantly contribute to the future development of photonic crystal research and its applications.
