Single-crystal optical actuators are emerging as a prospective material form for nano-optical mechanical switching, sensing, or transduction device applications in nano-technology and quantum technology. Crystal-lattice strain effects lie at the molecular origins of their macroscopic optical behavior, and linkage photoisomerization is an attractive source of optical actuation if only suitably functioning materials of this ilk could be found. In this work, we discover η¹-SO₂ to η¹-OSO single-crystal linkage photoisomerization in [Ru(NH₃)₄(SO₂)(3-phenylpyridine)]Cl₂·H₂O, which behaves macroscopically as a single-crystal optical actuator, whereby the crystal peels in response to light-induction at 100 K. It thermally recovers, whereupon the crystal exhibits remarkable restorative properties. We apply photocrystallography alongside concerted optical microscopy and optical absorption spectroscopy to reveal how the molecular origins of photoisomerization induce crystal-lattice strain that engenders this macroscopic crystal peeling effect. Finally, linking structure and function across molecular and macroscopic length scales showcases a means by which single-crystal optically actuating materials could be systematically designed.
