Photo-induced and thermal reactions in thin films of an azobenzene derivative on Bi(111)
Azobenzene is a prototypical molecular switch which can be interconverted with UV and visible light between a trans and a cis isomer in solution. While the ability to control their conformation with light is lost for many molecular photoswitches in the adsorbed state, there are some examples for suc...
