Zinc (Ii) and aiegens: The “clip approach” for a novel fluorophore family. a review [PDF]
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) compounds display a photophysical phenomenon in which the aggregate state exhibits stronger emission than the isolated units. The common term of “AIEgens” was coined to describe compounds undergoing the AIE effect.

Controlled Charge Transfer in Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes using Organic Molecules via Nondestructive Covalent Pre-Functionalization [PDF]
This thesis proposes a novel approach for controlling and optimizing the optoelectronic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) through functional groups for covalent functionalization and, ultimately, building photonic devices at the ...

Cationic thiazolothiazole derivatives – A new class of photosensitizing agents against Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
The assessment of thiazolothiazoles (TzTz) as photosensitizers in photodynamic inactivation (PDI) experiments is reported for the first time. Mono and dicationic TzTz derivatives were synthesized, and their photosensitizing ability was assessed on ...

Quinoxaline-based azamacrocycles: synthesis, AIE behavior and acidochromism
Quinoxaline-based AIEgens with flexible receptor units were prepared using macrocyclization through the Pd-catalyzed amination reaction. They were then used to prepare AIE-exhibiting test strips for measuring acidity in vapors and aqueous media.

Photo- and halochromism of spiropyran-based main-chain polymers [PDF]
Advanced functional polymeric materials based on spiropyrans (SPs) feature multi-stimuli responsive characteristics, such as a change in color with exposure to light (photochromism) or acids (halochromism).

Quantum Chemical Study of a Dihydroazulene‐Spiropyran Multi‐State Multi‐Functional Molecular Switch
While its UV/vis absorption properties are straightforward to interpret, the DHA‐SP molecular switch turns out to present a complex behavior of its second‐order NLO responses along its successive transformations between its eight state, but TDDFT calculations and the Summation‐Over‐States formalism are efficient tools to explain these and reveal the ...

Molecular aggregation, solvato- and acidochromic properties of symmetrical ketocyanines
The absorption and fluorescence spectral characteristics of some symmetrical ketocyanine dyes have been investigated in different solvents of various polarities using steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopic techniques. The absorption spectral features are less sensitive to the solvent characteristics than the corresponding fluorescence ...
