Precise control over molecular movement is of fundamental and practical importance in
physics, biology, and chemistry. At nanoscale, the peculiar functioning principles and the …

This review demonstrates directional photofluidization lithography (DPL), which makes it
possible to fabricate a generic and sophisticated micro/nanoarchitecture that would be …

Täglich benutzen wir Schalter, um strombetriebene Geräte an-und abzuschalten und kein
Compuer würde ohne sie funktionieren. Nach den gleichen Prinzipien funktionieren auch …

This paper brings an overview of photoisomerization-derived properties in azobenzene-
containing nanostructured films produced with the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) and layer-by …

A very sensitive experimental setup for accurate wavelength-dependent hyper-Rayleigh
scattering (HRS) measurements of the molecular first hyperpolarizability β in the broad …

A novel class of photochromic materials based on polar azo derivatives containing
functionalized biphenyl substituents has been synthesized. Once melt and cooled, these …

Holographic surface relief gratings (SRGs) were fabricated on composite films assembled by
electrostatic layer-by-layer (ELBL) deposition of a polyelectrolyte, poly (dimethyl …

This article presents a concise review of research performed in the field of Langmuir–
Blodgett films. Various types of conducting polymers, piezoelectric/pyroelectric polymers …

This paper reports the fabrication of birefringent microstructures using two-photon
absorption polymerization. The birefringence is caused by a light-driven molecular …

The buildup of layer-by-layer (LBL) films from chitosan and the azodye Ponceau-S (PS) was
investigated under various experimental conditions, and the resulting films were used in …
