89 Abstract Directed Materials Assembly by Optical and Acoustic Forces We develop novel concepts based on the idea that forces arising from light (as optical traps or photo- thermal based) and standing acoustic waves can be used to influence the products of ongoing chemical reactions. These forces dictate the spatial distribution of the materials, their mesoscopic structure and could allow the formation of new composite materials. These approaches have many benefits compared to other “bottom-up” methods for material assembly that conventionally rely on accumulation of preformed materials. A key feature of our methodology is its modularity, as it could be implemented on various material systems. Due to the flexibility in material choice, this innovative approach will open the door to new ways to act upon materials, with envisioned applications in 3D printing, electronics and sensing. We develop novel methods for bottom-up directed assembly by utilizing concepts from chemistry, physics, and materials science.

Nonlinear optical techniques have been applied to many diverse disciplines ranging from atomic, molecular, and solid state physics and materials science, to chemical dynamics, biophysics, medicine, and even neuro-science, where brain activity is studied through two- photon microscopy. The field of quantum optics has provided important insights into numerous quantum phenomena, and the demonstration of effects such as entanglement and squeezed light has led to the observations of remarkable results. However, ordinary nonlinear optics processes, taken into the x-ray regime, are known to be very weak, while available x-ray sources suffer from insufficient brightness. Recent and expected improvements in brightness and
