摘要
This work presents the influence of the trans-cis photoisomerization process of azobenzene-segments onto the optical properties of polysilanes. For this purpose 4-(phenyldiazenyl)phenol and 4-[(4'-nitrophenyl)diazenyl]phenol groups were attached to poly[diphenylsilane-co-methyl(bromopropyl)silane] using the Williamson etherification conditions. Photoisomerization of the pendant azo-groups by irradiation with 365 nm UV light induced distortion of the polysilane backbone conformation in a reversible manner. This process was studied by UV spectral analysis and the photochromic behavior of both polymers was established by taking into account the variation of the sigma-sigma* absorption intensity.
