A self-healing polymeric material includes a polymeric matrix material, wherein dispersed within the polymeric matrix material is a mixture of materials that includes monomers and a photoinitiator, and a plurality of light generating microcapsules dispersed in the polymeric matrix material. Each light generating microcapsule encapsulates multiple reactants that undergo a chemiluminescent reaction. The chemiluminescent reaction generates a photon having a wavelength within a particular emission range that is consistent with an absorption range of the photoinitiator.

A method is described for exfoliating a microcrystal of an anthracene derivative by irradiation with short pulses of light having a wavelength of 220-420 nm. The irradiation induces a cis-trans isomerization of the anthracene derivative in a part of the microcrystal, which leads to the separation of an outer layer having a thickness of 200-600 nm. The exfoliated microcrystal may be irradiated again with pulses of light of a same or different wavelength.
