[0035] 4. Since the photochromic rare earth spirosome material of the present invention is composed of rare earth elements and organic ligands, the rare earth elements and the coordination units provide a strong coordination effect in the material, enhance the stability of the entire molecule, reduce the possibility of structural fatigue, and ensure the high reversibility of energy transfer and structural changes in the photochromic process while maintaining the integrity and stability of the structure during repeated photochromic processes. Therefore, the photochromic rare earth spirosome material of the present invention has strong fatigue resistance, and the absorbance decreases by <0.5% after 10,000 switching cycles; it can be reused.
[0036] 5. The synthesis method of the photochromic rare earth supramolecular helicoid of the present invention is relatively simple and has low synthesis cost, and has the possibility of large-scale industrial application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
