Abstract :
Crosslinked liquid-crystalline polymers containing photochromic molecules show various three-dimensional movements upon irradiation with light to cause photochemical reactions of the photochromes. We will present on how we can fabricate effectively these crosslinked photomobile materials on top of polymer substrates.
