Conformal coating of cylindrically‐patterned carbon nano tube micropillars with a dielectric poly‐tetravinyltetrameth ylcyclotetrasiloxane) (PV 4 D 4 ) film using initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD), followed by lithiation for 3 days in a 1 M solution of LiClO 4 in propylene carbonate (PC) and annealing at 110 °C for 1 hour, results in partial capillarity‐driven collapse of cylinders and the formation of porous CNT “microcupcakes” that offer potential application as electrodes in 3D Li + batteries.
