Mechanism of Photoinduced Bending and Twisting in Crystalline Microneedles and Microribbons Composed of 9-Methylanthracene.

The solid-state photodimerization of 9-methylanthracene is used as a model system to investigate how crystal morphology and reaction dynamics affect photomechanical deformations of single microcrystals. By varying the crystallization conditions, two different crystal shapes, microneedles and microri...
