From nanoscopic to macroscopic photo-driven motion in azobenzene-containing materials
The illumination of azobenzene molecules with UV/visible light efficiently converts the molecules between trans and cis isomerization states. Isomerization is accompanied by a large photo-induced molecular motion, which is able to significantly affect the physical and chemical properties of the mate...
