Abstract

Azobenzene-impregnated porous silicon (azo-PS) was used, for the first time, as a color-rewritable organic/inorganic hybrid material. Under UV light illumination, the generation of cis-azo enhances the red photoluminescence (PL) emission. Images can be written and erased under external light and thermal stimuli.
