Journal ArticleDOI

Storage of Information Using Small Organic Molecules

TL;DR: It is shown that storage of information in mixtures of readily available, stable, low-molecular-weight molecules offers new approaches to the problem of zero-energy, robust information storage.
Patent

Optical modulator/detector based on reconfigurable diffraction grating

TL;DR: In this article, a system is provided for positioning separate portions of a sample in elongate, parallel channels of the sample chamber and irradiating the sample in the chamber to create a diffraction pattern where the sample and the chamber differ in refractive index.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging the irradiance distribution in the optical near field

TL;DR: In this article, the use of a sensitive photoresist for direct imaging of optical intensity profiles in near-field photolithographic experiments is described, which provides a reliable semiquantitative image of the irradiance distribution in the near field; experiment and theory correlate adequately.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-dimensional colloid crystals obtained by coupling of flow and confinement

TL;DR: A nonequilibrium, convective, mechanism leading to formation of ordered 2D structures of both closed-packed hexagonal and non-closed-packed rhombic symmetries that tend to self-repair disorder induced by particle polydispersity, contaminants, and flow instabilities is described.
