process offers a simple, non-lithographic way to fabricate twodimensional periodic nanostructures. Such regular alumina nanopillar arrays with an adjustable lattice constant (90± 300 nm) are suitable for two-dimensional photonic bandgap structure materials for use in UV-vis wavelength regions.

The direct and inverse piezoelectricity in single crystal ferroelectric liquid crystalline elastomers was measured by means of purpose-made experimental setups. As expected the observed effects depended strongly on temperature and the strength of the applied alternating electric field; additionally
**Tuning of a dye‐doped cholesteric liquid crystal mirrorless laser** in the violet– ultraviolet wavelength range is achieved using two different strategies for controlling the periodicity of the cholesteric helical structures. Both methods are shown produce a shift of the lasing wavelength by 30–40
