Further investigation with polarized soft X‐ray scattering reveals that solution shearing induces more face‐to‐face orientation relative to the interface of two components compared to spin‐coating. This impact is shearing speed dependent, that is, slow shearing speed can induce more face‐to‐face orientation than a fast shearing speed. These results demonstrate that solution shearing is an effective method to control the relative molecular orientation. Solution shearing can also modify the domain size and average composition variations.}, number={21}, journal={ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS}, author={Ma, Wei and Reinspach, Julia and Zhou, Yan and Diao, Ying and McAfee, Terry and Mannsfeld, Stefan C.
