Besides interesting applications in drug delivery, photoresponsive molecules have great potential to serve as an efficient basis for postfunctionalization photopatterning of polymer surfaces. To the best of our knowledge, only UV light sources have been exploited as a photoinducer for creating patterned templates with or without hydrogels. In this work, we present a practically facile method for grafting visible light responsive donor-acceptor stenhouse adducts (DASAs) on amino-functionalized polycarbonate surfaces. DASA grafted surfaces have shown excellent lithographic performance using visible light. The functionalized surfaces exhibit significant changes of their physical properties after being illuminated with visible light. By using suitable masks, well-defined patterns can be replicated with high precision and resolution. Since the DASA ligand synthesis and surface functionalization is not cumbersome, this method may serve as a facile protocol for obtaining photopatterned polymer surfaces for various applications.
