摘要
Photomechanical response of amorphous polymer films containing azobenzene chromophores in side chains is studied. By invoking the trans-cis isomerization mechanism, the steady-state deformation of the film induced by uniform illumination of linearly polarized light is obtained analytically. The deformation turns out to be of entropic origin, produced to compensate the entropy decrease due to photo-induced redistribution of azobenzene chromophores normal to the polarization direction. The predicted elongation direction of the film is consistent with previous experimental observations.
