Abstract
Photobistable chiral polymers were obtained by covalent attachment of inherently dissymmetric 2-hydroxy-9-(7'methy1-1',2',3',4'-tetrahydrophenanthrene-4'-ylidene)-9H-thioxanthene to methacrylate copolymers with appropriate spacers. Upon irradiation at 300 nm the optical activity of thin films of these polymers could be altered.
