Two‐dimensional honeycomb‐structured films have been prepared using a new light‐emitting rod–coil block copolymer. Carbon disulfide was used to drop‐cast the films, during the cooling of which water droplets condensed on the still‐liquid surface and organized themselves in a highly regular fashion. The resulting porous films were then used as templates for a two‐dimensional array of aluminum microdots (see Figure).
