“…Because of the large interfacial area of the thin film, the orientation of the domains depends greatly upon the relative surface energies of the blocks 7–10. The incorporation of a liquid crystalline (LC) component into a block copolymer system can have significant effects upon the self‐assembly behavior and domain orientation for both bulk materials11–18 and thin films 9, 19, 20. Additionally, liquid crystalline polymers (LCP) are of particular interest as they can allow for the introduction of responsive elements into the system, for example, thermo‐, chemo‐, electro‐, or photo‐responsive 21…”
