摘要：

High remanent optical anisotropy in photochromic sol-gel films is shown to be photoinduced by discoloration with linearly polarized visible light. This anisotropy results in a linear dichroism in the visible absorption band and in an important birefringence in the near-infrared transparency region. The kinetics of the whole process are quantitatively well described by a simple analytical model. Intrinsic characteristics of the individual molecule, such as the photochemical quantum yield and the anisotropy of their optical properties, are determined. The potential application of this effect to optical data storage is discussed. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(99)03012-0].
