We report the facile optical creation of switchable localized structures in chiral liquid crystals doped with fullerene. In a cholesteric cell unwound by vertical boundary conditions, the initially dispersed fullerenes are deposited from the bulk to the surface of confining glass plates by low-intensity illumination. This alters the surface boundary conditions and allows for the creation of localized particlelike structures with twist-bound defects (dubbed Torons) that are controlled by electric fields and arranged into patterns of interest for photonic and electro-optic applications.
