Light-Induced Structures and Microparticle Transportation in a Free-Surface Frustrated Chiral Nematic Film
Local illumination with a light beam leads to thermo-orientational processes in a frustrated chiral nematic film with a free surface. Light-induced hydrodynamic flow and orientational structure create an adaptive platform for the collection, translation and rotation of suspended spherical microparti...
