ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Light can be used to design stimuli-responsive systems. We induce transient changes in the assembly of a low molecular weight gelator solution using a merocyanine photoacid. Through our approach, reversible viscosity changes can be achieved via irradiation, delivering systems where flow can be controlled non-invasively on demand.
