Unique multiphthalocyanine coordination systems: vibrationally hot excited states and charge transfer states that power high energy triplet charge separated states

Abstract

Controlling molecular architecture of well-organized organic building blocks and linking their functionalities with the impact of solar-light converting systems constitutes a grand challenge in materials science. Strong absorption cross-sections across...

Soluble Ruthenium Phthalocyanines as Semiconductors for Organic Thin‐Film Transistors

“…Ruthenium phthalocyanines (RuPcs) have been studied for a wide array of applications, including materials chemistry, [1,2] photoelectronics, [3] and photodynamic therapy. [4][5][6] Additionally, RuPc compounds have found utility in a number of electronic devices, perhaps most prominently in organic photovoltaics (OPVs), [7][8][9][10][11] but have also been used in gas sensors, [12][13][14][15] and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).…”

Heteromeric guanosine (G)-quadruplex derived antenna modules with directional energy transfer

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] These systems generally involve the use of synthetic templates ( polymers, dendrimers, metal-organic frameworks) or biological scaffolds (such as protein-based viral capsids) to position dyes in a well-defined, nanometer regime, for light absorption and funneling. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Among the various scaffolding technologies, DNA is arguably unrivaled due to the diversity and programmability of 3D structures that can be assembled using DNA, with precision placement of dyes. [25][26][27][28][29][30][31] Further advantages of DNA include its compatibility with biological systems and facile post-synthesis modification.…”
