Photodegradation of azobenzene nonlinear optical chromophores: the influence of structure and environment

The photodegradation of a variety of donor-acceptor-substituted azobenzene nonlinear optical chromophores has been studied. The variables examined that influence the rate of degradation include chromophore and host polymer structure, irradiation wavelength, temperature, and atmosphere.
