Light-induced deformation of side-chain azo-polyacrylate: insights from atomistic modeling
Source abstract
Abstract
A fully atomistic model of a widely used azo-polyacrylate exposed to linearly polarized light reveals a non-monotonic deformation: rapid contraction from azobenzene reorientation followed by slower elongation due to polymer backbone alignment.
