摘要

Photoisomerizations of a newly designed azobenzene derivative reversibly change its self-assembly in a solution to form twisted supramolecular nanofibers and amorphous aggregates, respectively. When irradiating the sample solution with audible sound, the former assembly exhibits a LD response due to its hydrodynamic orientation, but the latter one is LD silent, in the sound-induced fluid flows.
