Synthesis and Photoswitching Properties of Aznzene Liquid Crystals with a Pentafluorobenzene Terminal

The fluorine-substituted benzoate ester rod-shaped liquid crystals containing an azobenzene side chain linked with terminal double bonds were synthesized and characterized. The mesophase and photoswitching properties were determined by polarizing optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calor...
