Yue Shi gives a talk at the LC2CAM conference about the properties of DMR Azo-SAM and its use on liquid crystals, and the local reorientation of liquid crystals.

Ophelia Tsui gives a talk at the LC2CAM conference about inhomogeneous patterned surfaces, liquid crystals, and azo dye film.

J. M. Dahdah talks about functionalized surfaces, their role in the development of nanostructures, their properties controlled by light, and their complex micro-structural environments.

Sin-Doo Lee gives a talk at the LC2CAM conference about the general features of dye-doped systems and binary LC grating, and the surface mediated optical memory and optical rewritability of LC gratings.
