Azobenzene photochemistry is a fascinating area of investigation, on one hand, because it
is fairly wellknown, 1 and on the other hand because it has produced and continues to …

The review covered the works published after 2000 and is devoted to the synthesis of azo
chromophores with nonlinear optical (NLO) properties that were estimated experimentally or …

The following article is a tribute to the late Almeria Natansohn and is based on a brief
summary of her research in azopolymers. She showed that reversible trans–cis–trans …

A novel, high-refractive index homopolymer was produced by incorporating carbazole and
phenol into the methacrylate monomer structure. The reaction of phenol with 9-(2, 3 …

To study the origin of reversible holographic recording in three polymers containing the
same azo-dye, we have measured the diffraction efficiency and analyzed the gratings …

Five novel carbazole-containing polymers, ie, poly (3, 6-di-tert-butyl-9-prop-2-
ynylcarbazole)[poly (t-Bu2CzPr)], poly (9-but-2-ynylcarbazole)[poly (CzBu)], poly (3, 6-di-tert …

Optically active photochromic copolymers of different composition, deriving from the
conformationally rigid chiral monomer (S)-3-methacryloyloxy-1-(4 '-nitro-4-azobenzene) …

We have investigated the influence of the temperature on the photoinduced birefringence as
well as on the diffraction efficiency of azo dye doped or grafted polymers. The samples are …

A new optically active photochromic polymethacrylate containing the carbazole moiety,
deriving from the chiral monomer (S)‐(4‐cyanophenyl)‐(3‐{9‐[2‐(2 …

Four polysilanes (3a–d) with high chromophore content have been successfully synthesized
by etherification between silylchloride containing polysilane precursors and hydroxy-ended …
