摘要：

The absorbance, fluorescence, and refractive index of a photochromic material can be modulated under the influence of optical stimulations. The reversible modification of these macroscopic properties is a result of photoinduced transformations at the molecular level. These processes can be exploited to mediate the inter-play of optical signals and offer the opportunity to design and implement photonic devices for optical processing based on molecular components.
