- Azobenzene photomechanics: prospects and potential applications (2012, background): “Such anisotropic deformation can be very large, and along with the versatile mechanical properties of the polymer network and the reversibility of the process (upon cooling, LCE films revert back to their original size), LCEs show great potential as artificial muscles [232–237].”
