Polarized light guiding anisotropic deformation and relaxation in photosensitive polymeric substrates

Light-responsive polymers offer unique possibilities for anisotropic manipulation of objects on the micron scale. Here we demonstrate the reversible anisotropic stretching of a polymeric surface made out of an azopolymer-elastomer blend, in response to green laser irradiation with varying polarizati...
