Abstract
Recently advances in the area of ordering phenomena of colloidal suspension s under the combined action of external fields and spatial confinement have taken place. Colloidal systems confined to an interface are ideal models f or the two-dimensional melting transition or light-induced crystallization and re-entrant melting.
