Azobenzene derivatives are a unique class of photo-switch molecules with promising potential for nanoscale optical applications. We have studied the self-assembly and photo-induced mechanical switching of azobenzene derivatives on Au(111) at the single ...

Efficient light-induced phase transitions in halogen-bonded liquid crystals [PDF]
Here, we present a new family of light-responsive, fluorinated supramolecular liquid crystals (LCs) showing efficient and reversible light-induced LC-to-isotropic phase transitions.

Concentration dependence of thermal isomerization process of methyl orange in ethanol [PDF]
The thermal isomerization (TI) rates of methyl orange (MO) and 4-dimethylaminoazobenzene (DMAAB) in ethanol (EtOH) are measured. Usually TI rates of azobenzene dyes are known to be concentration independent.

Computational design of metal-supported molecular switches: Transient ion formation during light- and electron-induced isomerisation of azobenzene [PDF]
In molecular nanotechnology, a single molecule is envisioned to act as the basic building block of electronic devices. Such devices may be of special interest for organic photovoltaics, data storage, and smart materials.

Spontaneous formation of optically induced surface relief gratings [PDF]
A model based on Fick's law of diffusion as a phenomenological description of the molecular motion, and on the coupled mode theory, is developped to describe single-beam surface relief grating formation in azopolymers thin films. It allows to explain the

Mechanism and Dynamics of Azobenzene Photoisomerization
The excited-state dynamics of trans-azobenzene were investigated by femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics. Two near-degenerate pipi* excited states, S2 and S3,4, were identified in a region hitherto associated with only one excited state.

Generating and sustaining long-lived spin states in 15N,15N′-azobenzene [PDF]
Long-Lived spin States (LLSs) hold a great promise for sustaining non-thermal spin order and investigating various slow processes by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
