Precise control over molecular movement is of fundamental and practical importance in
physics, biology, and chemistry. At nanoscale, the peculiar functioning principles and the …

The illumination of azobenzene molecules with UV/visible light efficiently converts the
molecules between trans and cis isomerization states. Isomerization is accompanied by a …

Täglich benutzen wir Schalter, um strombetriebene Geräte an-und abzuschalten und kein
Compuer würde ohne sie funktionieren. Nach den gleichen Prinzipien funktionieren auch …

This paper brings an overview of photoisomerization-derived properties in azobenzene-
containing nanostructured films produced with the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) and layer-by …

We propose a concept of supramolecular materials for effective all-optical generation of
surface relief structures and optical anisotropy. The materials are based on the ionic …

In a search for effective polymer film material for holographic surface patterning,
commercially available azobenzene polyelectrolyte has been employed. Films of good …

Electrostatic interactions govern most properties of polyelectrolyte films, as in the
photoinduced birefringence of azo-containing polymers. In this paper we report a systematic …

A weak polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer self-assembled multilayer has several morphologies
depending on solution pH, including the morphology of poly (allylamine …

The present invention is directed to a film forming, photoactive, homogeneously mixed
material comprising a complex prepared from (a) at least one ionic photosensitive …
