摘要
Liquid crystal (LC) micro-droplet arrays are elegant systems that have a range of applica-tions, such as chemical and biological sensing, due to a sensitivity to changes in surface properties and strong optical activity. In this work, we utilize self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) to chemically micro-pattern surfaces with preferred regions for LC occupation. Exploiting discontinuous dewetting, dragging a drop of fluid over the patterned surfaces demonstrates a novel, high-yield method of confining LC in chemically defined regions. The broad applicability of this method is demonstrated by varying the size and LC phase of the droplets. Although the optical textures of the droplets are dictated by topological constraints, the additional SAM interface is shown to lock in inhomogeneous alignment. The surface effects are highly dependent on size, where larger droplets exhibit asymmetric director configurations in nematic droplets and highly knotted structures in cholesteric droplets.
