SU‐8 pillar‐assisted epitaxial assembly of toric focal conic domains (TFCDs) arrays of smectic‐A liquid crystals is studied. The 3D nature of the pillar array is crucial to confine and direct the formation of TFCDs on the top of each pillar and between neighboring pillars, leading to highly ordered square and hexagonal array TFCDs. Excellent agreement between the experimentally obtained critical pillar...
Randall D. Kamien, Shu Yang, and co‐workers demonstrate an epitaxial approach to tailor the size and symmetry of toric focal conic domain (TFCD) arrays over large areas by exploiting 3D confinement and directed growth of Smectic‐A liquid crystals using SU‐8 pillar arrays with variable dimensions (size, height, and spacing) and sym‐metries. As reported on page 5519, a new variety of TFCD arrays (e...
