Fast Photoswitching Azo Dyes
Fast photoswitching azobenzene molecules were incorporated into isoflavone moieties. These molecules exhibit a liquid crystalline nematic state at certain temperature intervals. UV/Vis spectrophotometry investigations on solutions reveal that E/Z conversion takes place around 1 s, whereas thermal ba...
