" /> photochromism - CISMeF





Preferred Label : photochromism;

IUPAC definition : Reversible transformation of a molecular entity between two forms, A and B, having different absorption spectra, induced in one or both directions by absorption of electromagnetic radiation. The spectral change produced is typically, but not necessarily, of visible colour and is accompanied by differences in other physical properties. The thermodynamically stable form A is transformed by irradiation into form B. The back reaction can occur thermally (photochromism of type T) or photochemically (photochromism of type P). The terms 'switch-on' and 'switch-of' are sometimes used to denote the two directions of the photochromic reaction.;

Scope note : an important parameter is the number of cycles that a photochromic system can undergo under well-defined conditions (solution, matrix, concentration, temperature).;
