Buckle‐driven delamination and subsequent collapse of strained thin polymer films upon triggered release from the substrate is exploited to fabricate striking, well‐defined ridging patterns (see figure). An analysis of these patterns is presented, including the effects of film thickness and the exterior shape of these “quasi‐2D” polymer objects.
