    Annotation We propose a physical mechanism for a photo-induced orientation alignment of azo-dyes incorporated in polymers at temperatures far below the glass transition temperature. Using polarized FT-IR spectroscopy, we show that optical dichroism undergoes an observable change at the β-relaxation transition of azo-polymer when the mobility of short backbone fragments is increased. We explain this effect using temperature-dependent local strains that occur within the polymer backbones in a glassy state. These strains underlie the enhanced thermal relaxation that drives the orientation kinetics.
