Photo-reversible liquid crystal alignment using azobenzene-based self-assembled monolayers : comparison of the bare monolayer and liquid crystal reorientation dynamics

Photosensitive surfaces treated to have in-plane structural anisotropy by illumination with polarized light can be used to orient liquid crystals (LCs). Here we report a detailed study of the dynamic behavior of this process at both short and long times, comparing the ordering induced in the bare ac...
