💡can we control proton transport in soft materials using light?

In our new paper in Small from @pacella_gianni we show that this is possible using merocyanine metastable-state photoacid #polymers.

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar M. Yaghi “for the development of metal–organic frameworks.”

[Gianni Pacella @pacella_gianni]

Finally out the first paper from my PhD project!
Take a look at how a small modification can completely change the photochromism of molecular photoswitches.
Huge thanks to the whole team, none of this would have been possible without you!

Just finished a run at the #Diamomd light source #synchrotorn.
We had a great time in the UK, where in this top facility we managed to measure a huge variety of samples!
Big thanks to the team of I22, they are simply amazing! ⚗️💎

E se credete ora
Che tutto sia come prima
Perché avete votato ancora
La sicurezza, la disciplina
Convinti di allontanare
La paura di cambiare
Verremo ancora alle vostre porte
E grideremo ancora più forte
Per quanto voi vi crediate assolti
Siete per sempre coinvolti

Grazie #Pisa
