      abstract = {"The responsive nature and diversity of liquid crystals  provide tremendous opportunities as well as challenges for  insights in fundamental science, and opens the door to  various applications. Most modern electronic displays are  liquid crystal-based, but R&D is moving rapidly beyond into  such areas as electro-optic devices, energy, molecular  motors, tunable lasers, and biosensors. This unique  reference guides readers to the advances and directions of  liquid crystal research, helping spur continued progress in  the field. It emphasizes the chemistry, physics, and  applications of liquid crystals in photonics, power  generators, lasers, molecular motors, carbon nanotubes, and  biosensors"--},
