Abstract Surfaces with dynamic topographies play a pivotal role in modern technology by providing adaptable surface properties functional coatings. Here, method for creating high deformation amplitude using plasticized liquid crystal polymeric networks is proposed. Low molecular weight 5CB selected as the plasticizer, which then integrated into polymer (LCNs) and oligomer longer main chains (LCONs). Upon actuation, LCN coating reaches an of 30%, 14% larger than that pure system. While LCON exhibits significant close to 70%, over 37% greater LCONs. The LCONs exhibit more pronounced deformations LCNs due their flexibility. A physical model explaining underlying mechanism further developed. applications these surfaces optical devices, facilitating transitions between specular reflections diffuse reflections, or diffraction are demonstrated.
