An amorphous polymer bearing a number of H-bonded coumarin groups can display large bending towards incident UV light. Imbalanced surface stresses generated by the photocrosslinking of polymer chains occurring on the side of the film receiving the UV light are believed to cause the photoinduced deformation.
