(a) Schematic of the director patterns in LC-polymer films fabricated with tangential and radial alignments. The red arrows show heat-induced deformation directions. (b) Heating of the film by IR absorption causes reversible out of plane deformation dependent on the mesogen alignment. Photographs show actual LC-polymer films deformed under IR irradiation.
