Stimulus-responsive multifunctions in a zinc(ii) sulfate complex: photochromism, photoswitching nonlinear optical properties, amine detection and visual film application

Abstract

Stimulus-responsive functional materials show broad applications in the fields of sensing, optical switching and energy conversion devices. Herein, a one-dimensional chain compound constructed from the electron-deficient rigid polypyridine ligand 2,4,6-tri(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine...
