Abstract
Design of two types of ion-conducting systems using photochromic crown ethers as the photocontrol agents is described; one type is based on the phase transition of azobenzene derivatives induced by their photoisomerization and the other based on the molecular control of metal ion complexation by crowned spirobenzopyrans. The photoresponsive ion-conducting systems are applicable to electrostatic imaging and photorefractive materials.
