Solvent-dependent photoresponsive conductivity of ionic liquids

Published:2012-11-25 09:04:00 From:Editor hits:
Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted considerable attention in the past decade because of their unique physicochemical properties.1 Incorporating ILs with photochromism/photoisomerism functionality will give the so-called photoresponsive ILs or photochromism/ILs systems. Recently, a few such ILs2 or composite systems3 have been developed and exhibited attractive features such as photoresponsive magnetic moment, photoresponsive ionic conductivity, and structure-dependent photochromism. However, further development is necessary for in-depth investigation of their physicochemical properties and enhancement of their performance. In addition, although much effort has been devoted to photoresponsive ionic conductivity in ordered matrices,4 almost no attention was directed towards that in homogeneous solution in spite of its potential applications in electrochemistry and other related processes in solution.
