Cover: Photoalignment of the mesoscopic striped pattern in a Langmuir‐‐Blodgett monolayer of an azobenzene‐containing diblock copolymer was successfully achieved by irradiating linearly polarized light. The key to the successful alignment is the use of very flexible poly‐(dimethylsiloxane) in the coiled chain block. Further details can be found in the article by K. Aoki, T. Iwata, S. Nagano, and T. Seki * on page 2484 .
