Azobenzene photoswitches are an indispensable tool in light-responsive materials design. When irradiated by light, azobenzenes undergo a reversible trans-cis photoisomerization about the azo bond (N=N), a robust process used to photocontrol the properties of various materials, including metal organic frameworks, chemical sensors, biomimetic coatings, and liquid crystals. The isomerization...
