The photomechanical behavior of azobenzene-functionalized liquid-crystalline polymers (azo-LCPs) is closely related to UV light propagation. Here, we report the effect of light absorption by the LC host and the concerted isomerism of azobenzene on this property. In situ measurements of light absorptivity and computer simulations revealed that the light propagation of a liquid-crystalline polymer is affected by the UV absorption of the LC host under the same concerted isomerism of azobenzene. The lower UV light absorption of the LC host results in deeper UV light propagation and a sharper isomerization profile, which eventually induces faster bending when compared to the higher UV light absorption of the LC host. On the other hand, increasing the azobenzene concentration in the polymer greatly decreases the speed of light propagation, which is regarded as one of the factors inhibiting further increases in the bending speed of azo-LCP films.
