Reversible and persistent optical data storage in Langmuir-Blodgett-Kuhn liquid crystalline systems has been reported recently. Depending on the molecular structure, the trans-cis isomerization in these systems (induced by illumination with UV- and VIS-light) leads to different macroscopic behavior of the chromophore percentage on the photo-induced structural changes in a series of statistical copolymers.
