“…Perylene derivatives are also essential components of hybrid inorganic/organic material systems, which are often more attractive than “pure” inorganic or organic materials [ 47 , 48 ]. Perylene imides (PIs) and bisimides (PBIs) are the most frequently researched because of their attractive properties; i.e., they are outstandingly multifaceted organic chromophores, which makes them extremely useful materials in the field of organic electronics [ 16 , 18 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 ], organic photovoltaics [ 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 ], and photonics [ 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 ]. Among the advantages of PIs and PBIs are their low-cost and commercially available starting material, rigid and planar aromatic scaffolds, extraordinary thermal and photochemical stability, appreciable and tunable visible light absorption, unique self-assembly behaviors [ 59 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 ], and low-lying FMO (frontier molecular orbitals) [ 59 , 76 , 77 ].…”
