Concentration dependence of thermal isomerization process of methyl orange in ethanol [PDF]
, 2017 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.

The role of alkyl substituents in deazaadenine-based diarylethene photoswitches
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016 Diarylethenes are an important class of reversible photoswitches and often claimed to require two alkyl substituents at the carbon atoms between which the bond is formed or broken in the electrocyclic rearrangement.

Emission color tuning and white-light generation based on photochromic control of energy transfer reactions in polymer micelles [PDF]
, 2016 We encapsulate a fluorescent donor molecule and a photochromic acceptor unit (photoswitch) in polymer micelles and show that the color of the emitted fluorescence is continuously changed from blue to yellow upon light-induced isomerization of the ...
