Reversible Optical Information Stroage of Self-Assembled Alternating Multilayer Films: Bipolar Amphiphile-Polyelectrolyte

  • Published : 1998.11.20

Abstract

Alternating multilayer films of a cationic bipolar amphiphile and an anionic polyelectrolyte were prepared by a self-assembly method based on electrostatic attraction between opposite charges. The bipolar amphiphile contains an azobenzene unit in order to allow for a trans-cis photoisomerization to take place. Optical birefringence or dichroism was induced in the self-assembled film upon linearly polarized light irradiation. This dichroism could be reversibly written and erased by irradiation with light of an appropriate wavelength.
