We report a simple method for fabrication of bilayer photomobile materials by two-step photopolymerization without particular equipment. By using a normal glass cell with alignment treatment, we can control the thickness and molecular alignment. In this report, we prepared three azobenzene-containing crosslinked liquid-crystalline polymer (CLCP) films; single layer azobenzene-containing CLCP film (1), bilayer azobenzene-containing CLCP film with a layer of 1 and an additional CLCP layer (2), and a bilayer crosslinked azobenzene polymer film with a layer of 1 and a porous structure layer (2p). The photodeformation and photoresponse of 1, 2 and 2p was compared. The simply fabricated bilayer film (2) showed high durability; neither fatigue cracking nor delamination was observed even after 5-h UV irradiation at high intensity.
