step 5011, a first transparent substrate and a second transparent substrate are manufactured.
Step 5012, form a first alignment layer on the first transparent substrate, and form a second alignment layer on the second transparent substrate.
In forming the alignment layer on each of the first and second transparent substrates, an alignment material layer may be first formed on the substrate and then processed to form the alignment layer.

And the ratio of nematic liquid crystal, chiral molecules, chiral ion set, liquid crystal monomer and photoinitiator may be 100: n 1: n 2: n 3: n 4; wherein n1 is more than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 4, n2 is more than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 4, n3 is more than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 5, and n4 is more than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 0.3.

Step 5015, disposing the second transparent substrate opposite to the first transparent substrate such that the first alignment layer, the reactant, and the second alignment layer are all located between the first transparent substrate and the second transparent substrate.
In step 5016, the first transparent substrate and the second transparent substrate are encapsulated by using the sealant to form an initial structure.
After the initial structure is formed in step 5016, the worker may also heat the initial structure at a temperature of 60 degrees celsius for 30 minutes to allow the reactants in the initial structure to mix uniformly.
Step 502, placing the initial structure in a preset force field, and irradiating the initial structure with ultraviolet light to enable the reactant to perform a photosensitive reaction to form a reflecting layer.

Step 5022A, irradiating the initial structure with ultraviolet light at 35 ℃ to enable the reactants to perform photosensitive reaction to form a reflecting layer so as to form a reflecting film.
For example, the intensity of the ultraviolet light may be 1 milliwatt per square centimeter, and the irradiation time period of the ultraviolet light may be 1800 seconds.
In step 5022A, a spiral polymer is formed, and as an example, the spiral polymer may be formed as shown in fig. 9 to 11: after irradiating the initial structure with ultraviolet light L1 in step 5022A, as shown in fig. 9, polymer 1032 precipitates in the reactants (not shown in fig. 9) of the initial structure; then, as shown in fig. 10, under the action of the gravitational field F1, the polymer 1032 is gathered at the side close to the first transparent substrate 101, and the polymer 1032 is helical; the resulting polymer 1032 may be as shown in fig. 11.

Step 5022B, the centrifuge is started to enable the initial structure to do centrifugal motion.
As shown in fig. 13, after a centrifuge (not shown in fig. 13) is activated 5022B to make the initial structure 20 perform a centrifugal motion, the direction of the first transparent substrate 101 away from the second transparent substrate 102 in the initial structure 20 may be the same as the direction of the centrifugal force field F2 generated by the centrifuge. The initial structure 20 further includes a first alignment layer 104, a second alignment layer 105, a reactant (not shown in fig. 13), and a sealant 106.
And step 5023B, irradiating the initial structure with ultraviolet light at the ambient temperature of 25 ℃ to enable the reactant to perform photosensitive reaction to form a reflecting layer so as to form a reflecting film.
For example, the intensity of the ultraviolet light may be 10 milliwatts per square centimeter, and the irradiation time of the ultraviolet light may be 200 seconds.
In step 5023B, a spiral polymer is formed, and for example, the spiral polymer may be formed as shown in fig. 14 to 16: after irradiating the initial structure with ultraviolet light L2 in step 5023B, as shown in fig. 14, polymer 1032 precipitates in the reactants (not shown in fig. 14) of the initial structure; then, as shown in fig. 15, under the action of the centrifugal force field F2, the polymer 1032 is gathered at the side close to the first transparent substrate 101, and the polymer 1032 takes a spiral shape; the resulting polymer 1032 may be as shown in fig. 16.
