A polymer network is prepared by the thiol-yne photopolymerization of multifunctional dendrimer with a tetrathiol crosslinker. The network obtained shows a liquid crystalline phase at room temperature, which has been characterized by optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction. Photoinduced deformation of uniaxially aligned free-standing films of the photocrosslinked material has been demonstrated.
