Photochromism: Molecules and Systems. It is important for students to understand that chemical reactions can take place without the addition of other chemicals or elements to the system, which in directly observable in this isomerization. Two are pale yellow crystals that are not fluorescent at room temperature and exhibit photochromism (molecule 1 and 4), while the other two (molecule 2 and 3) are not photochromic , but exhibit fluorescence in the solid state. Fast andreversible photoinduced structural changes characteristic of photochromic materials are particularly interesting as they imply the use of molecular systems for all-optical switching. Photochromic molecules can be loosely divided into two types: those that returnto their initial state at a rate dependent on the ambient temperature (“thermally reversible” photochromic materials), and those which are thermally stable, . Photochromism: Molecules and Systems by Heinz Durr, Henri Bouas-Laurent. To make the Transitions lenses respond to UV light, photochromic molecules are applied to the surface of the lens in a dye. ‘Focussing dual light sources on the same small spot can be a problem from the perspective of both technical difficulty and cost performance,’ said Nishihara.

Novel photochromic material for photoswitching applications.
