Light‐Gated Control of Brownian Rotation by a Molecular Motor
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A light‐driven molecular motor acts as a reversible steric gate for a nearby Brownian rotor. Photoisomerization switches the rotor between fast and hindered rotational regimes by modulating steric congestion around the rotational axis. The motor–rotor architecture enables a five‐order‐of‐magnitude difference in the rotational barrier, demonstrating ...
