Abstract

Photopolymers, monomers, compositions including photopolymers and a dopant, and methods, including methods for eliciting a photomechanical response. The dopant may be a triplet sensitizing dopant. The exposing of compositions to the one or more wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation may elicit a photomechanical response via a triplet excited state mechanism.
