Photochromism of 2-hydroxy-4'-methoxychalcone: A novel photon-mode erasable optical memory system with nondestructive readout ability
The photochromic system of 2-hydroxy-4'-merhoxychalcone was found to be a novel photon-mode erasable system with nondestructive readout ability. The fatigue resistant property of the photochromic system of 2-hydroxy-4'-merhoxychalcone has been confirmed at least up to 10 write-and-erase cycles.
