Abstract

Azobenzene functionalized polymers have been extensively investigated due to the potential applications in the areas of optical switching, optical elements, optical information storage, and nonlinear optics. These applications are mainly achievable due to photoinduced properties of azobenzene groups with photoisomerization and photoinduced anisotropy. We report applications to the optoelectronic devices using inscribed one-(1D) and two-dimensional (2D) SRGs on azo polymer films. The inscribed holographic SRGs patterns were useful to control or enhance optoelectronic properties such as transparent electrode patterning, hybrid solar cell and ultraviolet GaN-based LED.
