Abstract: Photomechanical effects in liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) functionalized with photochromic moieties, such as azobenzene, have been widely studied. This prior work has demonstrated that isothermal, photoinduced (e.g. phototropic) disruption of order via isomerization of azobenzene… read more here.
