Mechanically Coupled Supramolecular Scissors Govern Photomechanical and Elastic Responses in Molecular Crystals.

Mechanically responsive molecular crystals offer a powerful platform for transducing molecular motion into macroscopic mechanical work, yet molecular-level understanding of how crystal structures govern molecular motion and, consequently, mechanical behavior remains limited. A notable example is the anthracene-pentipty...
