Abstract
The modification of relevant chemical properties of rhodopsin-based molecular photoswitches is presented. We show how both the substituents present and the nitrogen atom quaternization are capable to change the wavelength of absorption and the thermal stability of the photoisomer. Adjusting these properties, the molecular switches could be turned into useful compounds for solar energy storage devices.
