TiO2 films loaded with silver nanoparticles: control of multicolor photochromic behavior

Ag-TiO(2) films exhibiting multicolor photochromism were prepared by photoelectrochemical reduction of Ag(+) to Ag nanoparticles in nanoporous TiO(2) films under UV light. Color of the Ag-TiO(2) film, initially brownish-gray, changes under a colored visible light to the color of the light and reverts to brownish-gray under UV light. Their chromogenic properties were improved by simultaneous irradiation for Ag deposition with UV and blue lights to suppress the formation of anisotropic Ag particles. Nonvolatilization of a color image was also achieved by removing Ag(+) that was generated during the irradiation with a colored light. Once nonvolatilized, the image can be reproduced by UV light, even after the image is discolored under white light. This new effect evidenced that nanopores in the TiO(2) film determine the resonance wavelengths of the Ag particles, as their molds. In addition, solvatochromic behavior of the Ag-TiO(2) film proved that nanospaces left around the Ag nanoparticles affect the resonance wavelengths of the Ag particles.

芴酮引发光接枝改性LDPE膜的研究

采用紫外光引发接枝表面改性的方法,以芴酮(FL)为引发剂,在低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)薄膜表面上接枝丙烯酸(AA)、甲基丙烯酸(MAA)、丙烯酸甲酯(MA)、甲基丙烯酸甲酯(MMA)、丙烯酰胺(AM)等单体,以赋予薄膜表面新的化学性质.考察了引发剂浓度、紫外光的辐照时间、辐照强度、单体种类对LDPE薄膜接枝程度的影响.结果表明,在一定范围内,增加芴酮浓度,可以提高单体的接枝率,但当芴酮浓度达到5%时,接枝率反而下降.延长辐照时间至4 min和提高紫外光的辐照强度达100 W/m2,均有利于接枝反应的进行.不同单体在LDPE膜上的接枝能力与单体的活性、单体与基材的相容性等因素有关.接枝后,LDPE与水的接触角下降程度不仅与单体在膜上的接枝量有关,还与接枝单体的亲水性能密切相关.     

紫外光下纳米TiO2 薄膜亲水性机理的电化学研究

The nanometer films of TiO2 were prepared by sol-gel method on ITO（Indium-tin oxide,SnO2:In） substrate. The TiO2 film was the anatase phase with a particle size of 100 nm from the measurements of X-ray diffraction and AFM（Atomic-Force-Microscope）. Electrochemical characteristics of ITO/ TiO2 electrode under UV（ultraviolet）irradiation were investigated using the method of cyclic voltammetry. A new oxidative peak was observed at 0.035 V when the TiO2 electrode was irradiated by 253.7 nm UV light for a certain time. The peak current increased with the irradiation time. It was assumed that the new oxidative peak resulted from Ti3+,which was formed during the UV illumination. The changes of hydrophilicity of the TiO2 thin film on ITO under UV light were also observed. It was assumed that the changes of hydrophilicity of the films may be related with the formation of Ti3+ on the surface when the film was irradiated by UV light.

Surface-assisted photoalignment of discotic liquid crystals by nonpolarized light irradiation of photo-cross-linkable polymer thin films

In this article, we describe the surface-assisted photoalignment of discotic liquid crystals (DLCs) on thin films of photo-cross-linkable polymers with cinnamoyl moieties as the side chains. Oblique irradiation of the polymer thin films with nonpolarized UV light at 313 nm brought about inclined orientation of the cinnamoyl residues as a result of their direction-selective photoisomerization and photodimerization. The DLC molecules on the photoirradiated polymer films were aligned in a tilted hybrid manner. This means that the DLC directors are continuously altered from the substrate to the DLC film surface so as to minimize the elastic free energy. Interestingly, we found that the tilted direction of aligned DLC molecules is clearly influenced by the chemical structures of the cinnamate-containing polymers. When a poly(vinyl cinnamate) thin film was obliquely exposed to nonpolarized UV light, the DLCs were inclined to the direction opposite to the UV light propagation. In a keen contrast, the thin film of poly(methacrylate)s tethering cinnamoyl groups, which was obliquely exposed to nonpolarized UV light in advance, provided the tilting DLC direction in parallel with the light propagation. The results were supported by tilted orientation of calamitic (rod-shaped) liquid crystal on the obliquely irradiated polymer films. Such photoalignment behavior of the DLCs can be rationalized by anchoring balance between intermolecular interaction of the DLC molecules with the photodimers of polymer films and those with the remaining E-isomers of cinnamoyl side chains at the film interface. The present technique of DLC photoalignment opens promising ways not only to understand anisotropic physical properties of DLCs, but also to design and fabricate novel nanodevices for photonics and electronics applications.     

Photoswitched Cell Adhesion on Azobenzene‐Containing Self‐Assembled Films

Stimuli‐responsive surfaces that can regulate and control cell adhesion have attracted much attention for their great potential in diverse biomedical applications. Unlike for pH‐ and temperature‐responsive surfaces, the process of photoswitching requires no additional input of chemicals or thermal energy. In this work, two different photoresponsive azobenzene films are synthesized by chemisorption and electrostatic layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly techniques. The LbL film exhibits a relatively loose packing of azobenzene chromophores compared with the chemisorbed film. The changes in trans/cis isomer ratio of the azobenzene moiety and the corresponding wettability of the LbL films are larger than those of the chemisorbed films under UV light irradiation. The tendency for cell adhesion on the LbL films decreases markedly after UV light irradiation, whereas adhesion on the chemisorbed films decreases only slightly, because the azobenzene chromophores stay densely packed. Interestingly, the tendency for cell adhesion can be considerably increased on rough substrates, the roughness being introduced by use of photolithography and inductively coupled plasma deep etching techniques. For the chemisorbed films on rough substrates, the amount of cells that adhere also changes slightly after UV light irradiation, whereas, the amount of cells that adhere to LbL films on rough substrates decreases significantly.     

Preparation and characterization of DNA films induced by UV irradiation

Large amounts of DNA-enriched materials, such as salmon milts and shellfish gonads, are discarded as industrial waste. We have been able to convert the discarded DNA to a useful material by preparing novel DNA films by UV irradiation. When DNA films were irradiated with UV light, the molecular weight of DNA was greatly increased. The reaction was inhibited by addition of the radical scavenger galvinoxyl suggesting that the DNA polymerization with UV irradiation proceeded by a radical reaction. Although this UV-irradiated DNA film was water-insoluble and resistant to hydrolysis by nuclease, the structure of the DNA film in water was similar to non-irradiated DNA and maintained B-form structure. In addition, the UV-irradiated DNA film could effectively accumulate and condense harmful DNA-intercalating compounds, such as ethidium bromide and acridine orange, from diluted aqueous solutions. The binding constant and exclusion number of ethidium bromide for UV-irradiated DNA were determined to be 6.8 +/- 0.3 x 10(4) M(-1) and 1.6 +/- 0.2, respectively; these values are consisted with reported results for non-irradiated DNA. The UV-irradiated DNA films have potential uses as a biomaterial filter for the removal of harmful DNA intercalating compounds.     

Molecular design of polymer coatings capable of photo-triggered stress relaxation via dynamic covalent bond exchange

Polymer coatings are frequently used to modify surface properties of inorganic substrates. However, the disparity in physical properties between polymer film and substrate often leads to residual stress development, which can be deleterious to the overall performance of coated materials. This work reports the molecular design of polymer films that dissipate stress upon irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light. These polymers are synthesized by post-polymerization modification of the reactive polymer, poly(2-vinyl-4,4-dimethyl azlactone), to introduce dynamic crosslinks capable of light-initiated addition transfer fragmentation chemistry. Using a custom-built optical cantilever, contrasting film stress responses are observed between films containing dynamic bonds and analogous control films after UV light irradiation, which indicate successful stress relaxation. Further experiments demonstrate the complete relaxation of residual stress in dynamic films after an extended exposure, thereby generating a “stress-free” film. Films fabricated using this approach can be easily tailored to incorporate additional moieties to introduce desired surface properties for future application in a wide array of coatings.
