Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are

Deep surface relief grating in azobenzene-containing materials using a low-intensity 532 nm laser

open access: yesOptical Materials: X, 2019
The inscription of deep surface relief grating (SRG) in glassy monomeric azobenzene materials using a low intensity diode pumped solid state (DPSS) laser operating at 532 nm is demonstrated.

Microstructure of Reflection Holographic Grating Inscribed in an Absorptive Azopolymer Film

open access: yes, 2015
Microstructure of reflection holographic grating fabricated via a photo-isomerization process in an absorptive azopolymer film is analyzed. A surface relief formation takes place on the film surface even in the reflection holographic configuration.

Fast Active Merging of Microdroplets in Microfluidic Chambers Driven by Photo-Isomerisation of Azobenzene Based Surfactants

open access: yesBiosensors, 2019
In this work, we report on the development of a newly synthesized photoactive reversible azobenzene derived surfactant polymer, which enables active and fast control of the merging of microdroplets in microfluidic chambers, driven by a pulsed UV laser ...

Coherent Random Lasing Realized in Polymer Vesicles

open access: yesPhotonic Sensors, 2019
We have demonstrated the realization of a coherent vesicle random lasing (VRL) from the dye doped azobenzene polymer vesicles self-assembled in the tetrahydrofuran-water system, which contains a double-walled structure: a hydrophilic and hydrophobic part.

The absorption spectrum of cis-azobenzene

open access: yesPhotochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2017
Azobenzene is a prototypical photochromic molecule existing in two isomeric forms, which has numerous photochemical applications that rely on a precise knowledge of the molar absorption coefficients (ε). Careful analysis revealed that the previously reported absorption spectra of the "pure" isomers were in fact mutually contaminated by small amounts of

Modeling the Mechanisms of the Photomechanical Response of a Nematic Liquid Crystal Elastomer

open access: yes, 2011
Recent studies of azo-dye doped liquid crystal elastomers show a strong photomechanical response. We report on models that predict experimental results that suggest photothermal heating is the dominant mechanism in a planar constrained geometry.

Phenolic Azobenzene as Ligand for Cation Complexation—Syntheses and Applications

open access: yesMolecules
Phenolic azobenzenes have garnered significant attention as functional materials due to their ability to undergo reversible photoisomerization and their potential for cation complexation. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the recent

Photomechanical Azobenzene Crystals

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
Photomechanically responsive materials are promising candidates for future smart actuator applications. The photo-responsive behaviors originate from the photoisomerization of photochromic molecules.
