Rational selection of the para-substituent of azobenzene chromophores in supramolecular polymeric complexes is exploited to control the chromophore–chromophore intermolecular interactions occurring in the material system. This allows optimizing the material system for either efficient surface-relief formation or for high and stable photoalignment. The surface-relief gratings can be subsequently coated with amorphous TiO2 using atomic layer deposition, resulting in high-quality and high-index organic–inorganic gratings with vastly improved thermal stability compared to all-polymeric gratings.
