Photo‐Switchable FRET‐Enabled Flexible Luminescent Films for Multilevel Optical Security
A light‐gated FRET composite integrates a Tb‐Phen donor and a spiropyran acceptor in a polyurethane matrix. Under 365 nm light, spiropyran is transformed into merocyanine, creating spectral overlap with Tb3+ emission and activating energy transfer. Visible light reverses the switch, restoring green emission and enabling reversible multilevel optical ...

Photoreactions and Structural Changes of Anabaena Sensory Rhodopsin
Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (ASR) is an archaeal-type rhodopsin found in eubacteria. The gene encoding ASR forms a single operon with ASRT (ASR transducer) which is a 14 kDa soluble protein, suggesting that ASR functions as a photochromic sensor by ...

High Fatigue‐Resistant Photoswitches Based on iridium(III)‐DTE Systems
Coordination to iridium(III) enhances fatigue resistance over multiple photoswitching cycles in diarylethenes. This metal coordination modulates photoresponse relative to the free ligands under identical irradiation conditions, opening new avenues for practical applications.'' ABSTRACT A series of four differently substituted nonsymmetrical ...
