The blue shift of band Ⅰ from 287 to 269 nm as well as the decrease of the intensity of band Ⅰ and band Ⅱ could be found when samples were irradiated under UV light for different length of time. The simultaneous weakening of the intensity of the N-H...Cl hydrogen bond as well as the vibration of the long Cu-Cl bond in the distorted CuCl6^4- octahedron could be detected from the Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） spectra, which resulted the change of charge distribution of the dissymmetric Cl-Cu...Cl bond and the resulting photochromic behavior.展开更多
