Periodic arrays of liquid crystalline torons in microchannels

We have fabricated very well ordered periodic arrays of torons using cholesteric liquid crystal phase (CLC) in microchannels. The liquid crystal (LC) director exhibited different orientations with variations in the microchannel width. In particular, LC molecules were homeotropically aligned to the b...
