Morphing of liquid crystal surfaces by emergent collectivity
Liquid crystal networks can morph their shape in response to electrical stimulus. Here the authors provide a detailed description of their deformation mechanism and introduce a method to observe the dynamic surface of liquid crystal elastomers. This could help with the development of smart materials...
