Liquid crystal doped with the new light-driven molecular motor (IMAGE)
Caption
Optical image of the improved motor molecule in a liquid crystal cell. The RUG letters were generated by exposure to UV light through a mask, which moves the molecule into a position that confers a green color to the liquid crystal. The masked area shows no change of color, although the right-hand side is a bit green because of irregularities in the cell thickness.
