摘要
A general overview of the area of motions generated by azobenzene isomerization in polymer materials is presented. It is shown that these motions range from slight reorientations of the chromophore to massive motion of the polymer material. Photoinduced and photoassisted poling is also included, where isomerization is used to help the alignment and to obtain nonlinear optical effects.
