چکیده

We report rational molecular designs for acceleration of the color-fading speed of photochromic 3H-naphthopyrans. By using steric and electrostatic repulsions induced by substituents at the 2- and 10-positions of 3H-naphthopyrans, the color-fading speed accelerates from tens of minutes to microsecond time scales. The long-lived residual color, which is an important problem to be solved for industrial applications, can also be suppressed by these strategies.

Thiophene-substituted phenoxyl-imidazolyl radical complexes with high photosensitivity.

Phenoxyl-imidazolyl radical complex (PIC) is a novel photochromic compound, which generates two nonequivalent radicals upon UV light irradiation. While the color fading speed of PIC can be tuned from tens of nanoseconds to seconds, the low visible sensitivity has limited their potential applications. Herein, we developed novel thiophene-substituted PIC derivatives. The visible sensitivity and t...

Birefringence Properties and Surface Relief Grating Formation on Methylacrylate Polymers with Photochromic Side Chains

We have studied light-induced birefringence (LIB) and surface relief grating (SRG) formation in the series of methylacrylate polymers. The effect of material structure such as length of photochromic side chain, glass transition temperature and molecular structure of azo units on LIB and SRG are studied. The optical formation of self-induced SRG on films of these materials is also presented.

The influence of a 1,1-diarylvinyl moiety on the photochromism of naphthopyrans.

1,1,3-Triarylpent-4-en-1-yn-3-ols, efficiently obtained in two steps from 1,1,3-triarylprop-2-yn-1-ols by a Meyer-Schuster rearrangement and subsequent addition of lithium trimethylsilylacetylide, react with either a 1- or 2- naphthol to afford photochromic 1,1-diarylvinyl substituted naphtho[1,2-b]- or naphtho[2,1-b]-pyrans respectively. Irradiation of solutions of these naphthopyrans results ...

Spiral length design

On the circular curve, lateral acceleration affects comfort. On the spiral, both lateral acceleration and jerk affect comfort.  The determination of maximum curving speed on the basis of lateral acceleration only is not critical because the lateral acceleration is proportional to the square of speed whereas jerk is proportional to cubic power of speed. The maximum speed on a curve is thus signi...
