Popis: | We present the optical and photochromic properties as well as surface quality of thin films of the methacrylic copolymers containing 2-methylquinoline and quinoline azo-dyes in side chain. The extinction coefficient and refractive index were determined using spectroscopic ellipsometry combined with transmittance measurements. Photo-responsive behavior was investigated by determination of trans–cis photoisomerization rates under irradiation with unpolarized 365 nm light. We found that optical properties as well as photoisomerization rates of investigated polymers are dependent on the presence of a methyl substituent in the 2nd position of the quinoline moiety. The quality of the thin films was examined using Atomic Force Microscopy measurements. |
