Photo-induced reversible changes in wettability on light sensitive pyrimidine-coated surfaces

Thin coatings of photoresponsive, pyrimidine-terminated molecules, attached to gold or quartz substrates in contact with water, undego photodimerisation and wettability changes when irradiated with UV light at 280 and 240mm. Spin-casting and chemisorption techniques were used to prepare the thin films. / Thesis (PhDApSc)--University of South Australia, 2000.
