Nematic and smectic liquid crystals were introduced into micron-scale gaps between plates coated with polymer films nanoimprinted with parallel arrays of rectangular channels. Overlaying of the channels on the two plates close enough at a slight angle produces a mosaic of planar / homeotropic and hybrid alignments, showing that complex liquid crystal orientation patterns can be achieved by combining two simple topographic patterns. These alignment patterns are attributed to spatial variation of surface roughness and 3D topographic structure created by a sufficient proximity of the two patterns.
