“…Smart materials are new types of functional materials that can perceive external stimulations and then judge and respond appropriately by themselves. , They are one of the most important directions for the development of modern intelligent materials in the information age . Although there is still no unified definition, smart materials are generally called responsive materials with the following characteristics: (1) perceptiveness, i.e., able to detect and recognize the intensity of external or internal stimuli, such as electricity, light, heat, magnetism, mechanical force, solvent, pH, chemistry, nuclear radiation, etc., (2) targeted conversion, i.e., able to convert the input stimulus signal into the targeted output response signal through specific mechanisms/pathways, (3) responsiveness, i.e., capable of responding to stimuli through timely changes in physical/chemical properties. − Among all these stimuli, light is the most unique stimulu due to its special properties such as precise stimulation and response, remote nonintrusive control, and environmental friendliness. Photoresponsive materials undergo either a photochemical or photophysical mechanism to convert the light stimulation into a chemistry reaction, sound, light, heat, electricity, force, and other forms of energy .…”
