| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A photomechanical crystal driven by photoirradiation can convert photon energy directly into mechanical energy and can be remotely operated. Therefore, it can be expected to be applied as a photoactuator. We have previously reported photomechanical behavior such as shrinkage, expansion, and bending of diarylethene crystals. In this research, we focused on invention of the new photomechanical phenomena and their mechanism, mainly the quantitative evaluation of photoinduced bending behavior, the irradiation intensity dependence, the irradiation wavelength dependence, the irradiation polarization direction dependence, the irradiation direction dependency, the unique photoinduced bending behavior with a phase transition, the photoinduced twisting behavior, the photoinduced breaking behavior, and the application as a photoactuator.
