Glasgow University Theses Repository - Three dimensional touch and vision for the micro-world The ability to observe at tiny length scales has enabled key advances across the physical and life sciences. Much of what we know about the structure of cells and tissues comes from experiments on the micron length scale, enabled by new microscopy techniques. Modern manufacturing is increasingly con...

The University of Haute Alsace have done great things with the unique properties of ferroelectric liquid crystal spatial light modulators over the years. Here's another fine example:http://laurent.bigue.fr/Public/2011/GFB11/Gendre_OE_2011.pdf
