Microscopy of self-oscillation of the crystalline assembly - DOI:

A crystalline assembly of azobenzene derivative and oleate showed oscillatory bending-unbending motion under continuous 435-nm light irradiation. The frequency of oscillation increased with increasing light intensity. (Ikegami T. et. al., Angewandte Chemie International Edition, May 19, 2016.
