Topological Soliton Arrays In article number 2201749, Ivan Smalyukh, Dong Ki Yoon, and co‐workers report a new way to rationalize the real‐time observation of the generation and transformation of topological solitons using cholesteric liquid crystals confined in patterned substrates. The line textures are cholesteric fingers of the third kind (CF‐3s), in which 1D topological solitons called twist walls are stabilized by two twist disclination lines, which are nucleated and grown from the air pockets on the top view. This image represents that the CF‐3s array is formed like an infinite maze.
