چکیده

A decalin gel consisting of a 3,3'-bis[{(octylamino)carbonyl}propoxy]azobenzene derivative with H-aggregation showed a photon-density dependent E-Z isomerization, indicating the cooperating isomerization of each module.

Optothermal Switching of Cholesteric Liquid Crystals: A Study of Azobenzene Derivatives and Laser Wavelengths

The laser-initiated thermal (optothermal) switching of cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) is characterized by using different azobenzene (Azo) derivatives and laser wavelengths. Under 405-nm laser irradiation, Azo-doped CLCs undergo phase transition from cholesteric to isotropic. No cis-to-trans photoisomerization occurs when the 405-nm laser irradiation is blocked because only a single laser i...

Chirality induction by E-Z Photoisomerization in [2,2]paracyclophane-bridged Azobenzene Dimer

We designed and synthesized a new prochiral molecule in which two azobenzene moieties were embedded in [2,2]paracyclophane and showed the chirality induction by E-Z photoisomerization. We also demonstrated the on/off switching of asymmetry by irradiation and reflux respectively.

Effect of Pulsed Infrared Low- Level Laser Irradiation on Open Skin Wound Healing of Healthy and Streptozotocin Induced Diabetic Rats by a Biomechanical Evaluating Method

Purpose: The aim of present study is to evaluate the effect of a pulsed infrared low-level laser on wound healing in an experimental induced diabetic rat model.Materials and Methods: 18 adult rats were divided into 2 healthy and 1 diabetic groups. Diabete was induced by intraperitoneal administration of streptozotosin in diabetic group. Two full - thickness skin incisions were made on the dorsu...

A reversible light-operated nanovalve on mesoporous silica nanoparticles.

Two azobenzene α-cyclodextrin based nanovalves are designed, synthesized and assembled on mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Under aqueous conditions, the cyclodextrin cap is tightly bound to the azobenzene moiety and capable of holding back loaded cargo molecules. Upon irradiation with a near-UV light laser, trans to cis-photoisomerization of azobenzene initiates a dethreading process, which cau...

Nanoscale Chemical Imaging of Reversible Photoisomerization of an Azobenzene-Thiol Self-Assembled Monolayer by Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy.

An understanding of the photoisomerization mechanism of molecules bound to a metal surface at the molecular scale is required for designing photoswitches at surfaces. It has remained a challenge to correlate the surface structure and isomerization of photoswitches at ambient conditions. Herein, the photoisomerization of a self-assembled monolayer of azobenzene-thiol molecules on a Au surface wa...
