Abstract

Nanometric spheres of an azopolymer are obtained by micellization from a solution. We observe photoinduced deformation of the individual nanospheres under white light illumination. The diameter expands up to 35% parallel to the substrate surface. The magnitude of the force that is necessary to produce the same effect is estimated. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.
