This is a review of various synthetic methods and structures surrounding
the photo-responsive properties of self-assembled azobenzene containing
polymers. The synthesis and properties of many monomers
and architectures are discussed, including cool azo dendrimers. The
photo below demonstrates the effect of Ar+ laser radiation for
increasing amounts of time on an amphiphillic azo polymer.
