Light can be used to design stimuli-responsive systems. We induce transient changes in the assembly of a low molecular weight gelator solution using a merocyanine photoacid. Through our approach, reversible viscosity changes can be achieved via irradiation, delivering systems where flow can be controlled non-invasively on demand.
光可用于设计刺激响应系统。我们使用部花青光酸诱导低分子量凝胶剂溶液组装体发生瞬态变化。通过我们的方法,可通过照射实现可逆的粘度变化,从而提供能够根据需要进行非侵入性流量控制的系统。
