Advances on New Photochromic Compounds. Synthesis and Applications

Photochromic compounds are materials that can reversibly change color or optical properties when exposed to light, typically ultraviolet (UV) or visible light. This reversible color change is due to a molecular rearrangement or isomerization triggered by light absorption. Advances in this field are focused on synthesizing photochromic compounds with faster response times, broader wavelength sensitivity, and greater stability under prolonged light exposure. The phenomenon is of significant interest because it offers a wide range of... see more
