CLEO 2006 (Longbeach, CA, USA)

Presentation Slides: 

We use two-photon absorption polymerization to fabricate optically active microstructures that exhibit optically-induced birefringence and dichroism. Our results open the door to new applications in data storage, waveguides and optical circuitry
