Smart POMs : A surfactant‐encapsulated organic‐grafted polyoxometalate (POM) is synthesized by grafting a photoresponsive azobenzene group to an Anderson‐type POM cluster. Self‐assemblies of the hybrid complexes exhibit photocontrolled reversible aggregation and morphological change as a result of photoisomerization‐induced structural alternation (see figure).
