Abstract
The polymeric molecule can exhibit a new photoinduced phenomenon where the electric dipole of the molecule with a bipolaron is reversed by absorbing o ne photon. This photoinduced polarization inversion occurred in a single mo lecule is an ultrafast process with a relaxation time of 200 fs.
