On the number of Kekulé structures of fluoranthene congeners [PDF]
The Kekulé structure count K of fluoranthene congeners is studied. It is shown that for such polycyclic conjugated π-electron systems, either K = 0 or K ≥ 3.

The effect of atomic-scale defects and dopants on graphene electronic structure [PDF]
Graphene, being one-atom thick, is extremely sensitive to the presence of adsorbed atoms and molecules and, more generally, to defects such as vacancies, holes and/or substitutional dopants.

Halogen substitution controls a conformational switch between a folded closed‐shell and a flat singlet‐diradical conformer in an air‐stable Thiele‐diradical. This conformational switch allows for near‐unity photoluminescence quantum yield with a large Stokes shift, solvatochromism, and a long‐lived excited state.

Uniaxial Strain Induced Topological Phase Transition in Bismuth-Tellurohalide-Graphene Heterostructures [PDF]
We explore the electronic structure and topological phase diagram of heterostructures formed of graphene and ternary bismuth tellurohalide layers. We show that mechanical strain inherently present in fabricated samples could induce a topological phase ...

Molecular engineering of cyanine dyes to design a panchromatic response in co-sensitized dye-sensitized solar cells [PDF]
Cyanines are optically tunable dyes with high molar extinction coefficients, suitable for applications in co-sensitized dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs); yet, barely thus applied.G.P. thanks the EPSRC for a DTA Studentship (Reference: EP/K503009/1).

m-Quinodimethane-Based Fused-Ring Diradicals with Singlet and Triplet Ground States
Diradicals have attracted the attention of chemists due to their unique electronic structures and properties originating from unpaired electrons. One of the fundamental motifs of diradicals is quinodimethane; p- and o-quinodimethanes are singlet Kekulé ...

Algebraic structure count of linear phenylenes and their congeners [PDF]
The algebraic structure count of the linear phenylene with h six-membered rings is known to be equal to h + 1. We show that the same expression applies if each four-membered ring in the phenylene is replaced by a linear array consisting of k four ...

Proximity Enhanced Quantum Spin Hall State in Graphene
Graphene is the first model system of two-dimensional topological insulator (TI), also known as quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator. The QSH effect in graphene, however, has eluded direct experimental detection because of its extremely small energy gap due

Automated extraction of chemical structure information from digital raster images
Background To search for chemical structures in research articles, diagrams or text representing molecules need to be translated to a standard chemical file format compatible with cheminformatic search engines.
