Chiral Porphyrin Monolayers on Ferromagnetic Thin Films: Ultrafast Spectroscopy of Hybrid Interfaces
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.Chiral porphyrin–oligopeptide monolayers covalently bound to Au‐capped Co/Ni multilayers form surface‐parallel J‐type aggregates and exhibit measurable singlet‐state transient absorption despite monolayer coverage. Femtosecond pump–probe spectroscopy reveals strong excited‐state quenching at the metal interface, yet no long‐lived charge‐transfer ...
