Hexagonal array of holes in a polymer film.
Notes:
  1. The cross-sectional dimensions of the holes of a hexagonal array are usually less than \(\pu{1 mm}\).
  2. A method that utilizes the condensation of micrometer-size water droplets on the surface of solutions of block copolymers for the preparation of ordered micrometer-size honeycomb structures has led to the use of the extended term, honeycomb polymer from breath figures.
