The different 3D microstructures were printed using a laser power range of 20-30 mW and a prin�ng speed of 5-10 mm/s. It's worth no�ng that for LCE microstructures with a height greater than 5 µm, a 5% increment in laser power was crucial to compensate for the reduc�on in laser intensity when prin�ng through a birefringent structure. A�er the prin�ng, the cell was cut opened with a blade, and the unpolymerized ink was removed by immersing the substrate sequen�ally in two warm 2-propanol (60°C) baths for 10 and 2 minutes, respec�vely. The printed microstructures were then gently dried with a nitrogen flow.
