Article Synopsis
- Researchers have developed new azo-linked rod-shaped molecules made of three phenyl rings connected by a diazo and amide, featuring a hexyloxy tail and specific substitutions.
- The study examined the thermal behaviors and phase transitions of these materials through techniques like polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
- The molecules showed promising photoisomerization properties in different phases, which could be leveraged for optical storage applications, although further refinement is needed for practical use.
