Abstract
Photochromic fluorescent molecules dramatically extend their fields of applications ranging from optical memories, bioimaging, photoswitches, photonic devices, anti-counterfeiting technology and many more. Here, we have logically designed and synthesized a triazole appended bis-(dithienylethene)-naphthalenediimide based photo-responsive material, 5, which demonstrated fluorescence enhancement property upon photocyclization (ΦF =0.42), with high photocyclization (44 s, ksolution =0.0355 s-1 , ksolid =0.0135 s-1 ) and photocycloreversion (160 s, ksolution =0.0181 s-1 , ksolid =0.0085 s-1 ) rate and decent photoreaction quantum yield (Φo→c =0.93 and Φc→o =0.11). The open isomer almost converted to the closed isomer at photo-stationary state (PSS) with distinct color change from colorless to blue with 92.85 % conversion yield. A reversible noninvasive modulation of fluorescence through efficient photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process was observed both in solution as well as in solid state. The fluorescence modulation through PET process was further corroborated with thermodynamic calculations using the Rehm-Weller equation and quantum chemical studies (DFT). The thermally stable compound 5 exhibits high fatigue resistance property (up to 50 cycles) both in solution and solid state. Furthermore, the compound 5 was successfully applied as erasable ink and in deciphering secret codes (Quick Response/bar code) portending potential promising application in anti-counterfeiting.

Abstract
Photoresponsive polymers have attracted increasing interest owing to their potential applications in anticounterfeiting, information encryption, adhesives, etc. Among them, diarylethene (DAE)-containing polymers are one of the most promising photoresponsive polymers and have unique thermal stability and fatigue resistance compared to azobenzene- and spiropyran-containing polymers. Herein, the design of DAE-containing polymers based on different types of structures, including main chain polymers, side-chain polymers, and crosslinked polymers, is introduced. The mechanism and applications of DAE-containing polymers in anti-counterfeiting, information encryption, light-controllable adhesives, and photoinduced healable materials are reviewed. In addition, the remaining challenges of DAE-containing polymers are also discussed.

The Effect of Bulky Substituents on Two π-Conjugated Mesogenic Fluorophores. Their Organic Polymers and Zinc-Bridged Luminescent Networks. Polymers (Basel) 2019; 11:polym11091379. [PMID: 31443464 PMCID: PMC6780212 DOI: 10.3390/polym11091379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2019] [Revised: 08/01/2019] [Accepted: 08/20/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
From a dicyano-phenylenevinylene (PV) and an azobenzene (AB) skeleton, two new symmetrical salen dyes were obtained. Terminal bulky substituents able to reduce intermolecular interactions and flexible tails to guarantee solubility were added to the fluorogenic cores. Photochemical performances were investigated on the small molecules in solution, as neat crystals and as dopants in polymeric matrixes. High fluorescence quantum yield in the orange-red region was observed for the brightest emissive films (88% yield). The spectra of absorption and fluorescence were predicted by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. The predicted energy levels of the frontier orbitals are in good agreement with voltammetry and molecular spectroscopy measures. Employing the two dyes as dopants of a nematic polymer led to remarkable orange or yellow luminescence, which dramatically decreases in on-off switch mode after liquid crystal (LC) order was lost. The fluorogenic cores were also embedded in organic polymers and self-assembly zinc coordination networks to transfer the emission properties to a macro-system. The final polymers emit from red to yellow both in solution and in the solid state and their photoluminescence (PL) performance are, in some cases, enhanced when compared to the fluorogenic cores.

Abstract
Dielectric elastomer generators (DEGs), which follow the physics of variable capacitors and harvest electric energy from mechanical work, have attracted intensive attention over the past decade. The lack of ideal dielectric elastomers, after nearly two decades of research, has become the bottleneck for DEGs' practical applications. Here, we fabricated a series of polyurethane-based ternary composites and estimated their potential as DEGs to harvest electric energy for the first time. Thermoplastic polyurethane (PU) with high relative permittivity (∼8) was chosen as the elastic matrix. Barium titanate (BT) nanoparticles and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) plasticizers, which were selected to improve the permittivity and mechanical properties, respectively, were blended into the PU matrix. As compared to pristine PU, the resultant ternary composite films fabricated through a solution casting approach showed enhanced permittivity, remarkably reduced elastic modulus, and relatively good electrical breakdown strength, dielectric loss, and strain at break. Most importantly, the harvested energy density of PU was significantly enhanced when blended with BT and DBP. A composite film containing 25 phr of BT and 60 phr of DBP with the harvested energy density of 1.71 mJ/cm3 was achieved, which is about 4 times greater than that of pure PU and 8 times greater than that of VHB adhesives. Remarkably improved conversion efficiency of mechano-electric energy was also obtained via cofilling BT and DBP into PU. The results shown in this work strongly suggest compositing is a very promising way to provide better dielectric elastomer candidates for forthcoming practical DEGs.

Abstract
Cell adhesion behaviors of stimuli-responsive surfaces have attracted significant attention for their potential biomedical applications. Distinct from temperature and pH stimuli, photoswitching avoids the extra input of thermal energy or chemicals. Herein, we designed a novel reusable cyclodextrin (CD)-modified surface to realize photoswitched specific cell release utilizing host-guest interactions between CD and azobenzene. The azobenzene-grafted specific cell capture agent was assembled onto the CD-modified surface to form a smart surface controlling cell adhesion by light radiation. After UV light irradiation, the azobenzene switched from trans- to cis-isomers, and the cis-azobenzene was not recognized by CD due to the unmatched host-guest pairs; thus, the captured MCF-7 cells could be released. Light-triggered specific cancer cell release with high efficiency may afford a smart surface with significant potential applications for the isolation and analysis of circulating tumor cells.

Abstract
The wavelength-selective, reversible photocontrol over various molecular processes in parallel remains an unsolved challenge. Overlapping ultraviolet-visible spectra of frequently employed photoswitches have prevented the development of orthogonally responsive systems, analogous to those that rely on wavelength-selective cleavage of photo-removable protecting groups. Here we report the orthogonal and reversible control of two distinct types of photoswitches in one solution, that is, a donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) and an azobenzene. The control is achieved by using three different wavelengths of irradiation and a thermal relaxation process. The reported combination tolerates a broad variety of differently substituted photoswitches. The presented system is also extended to an intramolecular combination of photoresponsive units. A model application for an intramolecular combination of switches is presented, in which the DASA component acts as a phase-transfer tag, while the azobenzene moiety independently controls the binding to α-cyclodextrin.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive surfaces that can regulate and control cell adhesion have attracted much attention for their great potential in diverse biomedical applications. Unlike for pH- and temperature-responsive surfaces, the process of photoswitching requires no additional input of chemicals or thermal energy. In this work, two different photoresponsive azobenzene films are synthesized by chemisorption and electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly techniques. The LbL film exhibits a relatively loose packing of azobenzene chromophores compared with the chemisorbed film. The changes in trans/cis isomer ratio of the azobenzene moiety and the corresponding wettability of the LbL films are larger than those of the chemisorbed films under UV light irradiation. The tendency for cell adhesion on the LbL films decreases markedly after UV light irradiation, whereas adhesion on the chemisorbed films decreases only slightly, because the azobenzene chromophores stay densely packed. Interestingly, the tendency for cell adhesion can be considerably increased on rough substrates, the roughness being introduced by use of photolithography and inductively coupled plasma deep etching techniques. For the chemisorbed films on rough substrates, the amount of cells that adhere also changes slightly after UV light irradiation, whereas, the amount of cells that adhere to LbL films on rough substrates decreases significantly.

Abstract
A novel 4-arm shaped amphiphilic azobenzene compound was synthesized. The tetraphenylethylene (TPE) core precursor was prepared and further modified by azo coupling reaction at the four peripheral groups. Colloidal spheres could be directly prepared by self-assembly of the prepared amphiphilic azobenzene compound in selective solvents (THF/H2O), which were characterized by using transmission electron microscopy. The colloid diameters could be controlled by adjusting the initial compound concentration and water-adding rate in the preparation processes. By irradiation with visible linearly polarized LED light (450 nm), fast photoinduced deformation of the colloidal spheres along the polarization direction was observed. A very large deformation degree (l/d > 4) could be easily obtained.

Abstract
When adding two azobenzene chromophores on a dithienylethene molecule, the irradiation at 450 nm can effectively arouse the cycloreversion reaction of the ring-closed dithienylethene. We investigated the frontier molecular orbitals and absorption properties of such series of molecules and inferred the mechanism of the ring-opening reaction. The 450 nm light sensed by the side azobenzene groups can excite the whole molecule to a high excited state, and through electronic transition and energy transfer the active electron may centre on the dithienylethene ring part, then the ring-opening happens. While for the ring-open form, the energy of the 450 nm light is not high enough to promote the electron to the exact molecular orbital occupying the central dithienylethene ring, so it cannot cause the ring-closing reaction.
