Long-term global energy supplies with acceptable environmental impacts

Polyphenylene-Based Materials for Organic Photovoltaics

“…Energy will be one of the most important factors to influence human society in the 21st century. , Cost, availability, and sustainability of energy have a significant impact on the quality of our lives, development of global economies, relationships between nations, and the stability of our environment. Scientists are now focusing on the development of renewable energies generated from natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat.…”

Transition-Metal-Catalyzed C–H Activation Reactions for the Creation and Modification of Organic Fluorophores

“…In recent years, rylene imides, and in particular, perylene imides have gained prominence as highly practical and appealing fluorescent molecules, [176][177][178] primarily due to their ongoing research for utilization in solar cell applications, [179][180][181][182] In their initial stages of development, perylene imides gained recognition as reliable coloring agents, owing to their remarkable thermal and chemical stability. 179 Subsequently, they found application in the field of solar cells, 179,180 attributed to their exceptional optical properties and pronounced electron-deficient characteristics.…”
