| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Photo-mechanical conversion mechanism of PDR1MA was studied. The microscopy observation of molecular motion of PDR1MA revealed that the glass transition temperature of PDR1MA is lowered to -130 degree C under the activation light at 473 nm, whereas the un-illuminated PDR1MA has the glass transition temperature of 120 degree C. Therefore, the PDR1MA is mobile in the area illuminated by the activation light. On the other hand, the molecular motion is frozen in the un-illuminated region. A PDR1MA chain in the illuminated area diffuses by the Brownian motion and reaches at the un-illuminated area. Then the motion of the PDR1MA chain is frozen because the un-illuminated area is in a glass state. Thus, the PDR1MA is accumulated in the un-illuminated area, resulting in the surface grating formation.
