Digital photoprogramming of liquid-crystal superstructures featuring intrinsic chiral photoswitches

Zhigang Zheng et al.

Summary: The development of a unique intrinsic chiral photoswitch allows for digitally controllable, selectable and extractable multiple stable reflection states for applications in anti-counterfeiting technology. An anti-counterfeiting technique embedded with diverse microstructures, featuring color-tunability, erasability, reversibility, multi-stability and viewing-angle dependency of pre-recorded patterns, has been established using photoresponsive superstructures. This strategy enables dynamic helical transformation from the molecular and supramolecular to the macroscopic level, demonstrating the practicality of photoprogramming photonics.

Light-Reconfiguring Inhomogeneous Soft Helical Pitch with Fatigue Resistance and Reversibility

Mengqi Li et al.

Summary: This study introduces an additional degree-of-freedom in a photo-modulated soft helix, generating an unprecedented inhomogeneous helical pitch length with light-reconfiguring property. The use of a absorbance photo-modulator BTA-C5 enables the reconfiguration of helical pitch from homogeneous to inhomogeneous, providing a breakthrough for multi-freedom control in soft materials.

Summary: Molecular photoactuators can control the shape and properties of responsive systems through supramolecular interactions, allowing work to be done at micro- and macroscopic scales. Stereochmical cascades within photoresponsive structures can amplify motion to distant components, offering potential in designing the smallest imaginable machines.
