Competitive Dye Adsorption-Desorption on the Isotropic Surface at the Early Stage of the Photoexcitation of Azo Dye-Doped Liquid Crystals

The instantaneous response of liquid crystal (LC) molecules near the dye-adsorbed layer of azo dye-doped LCs (ADDLCs) in early-stage photoexcitation was observed through the pumped-attenuated total reflection (PATR) method. As the sensing depth of the attenuated total reflection (ATR) method is in t...
