Download or read book Photoinduced Intramolecular Charge Transfer in Donor Acceptor Biaryls and Resulting Applicational Aspects Regarding Fluorescent Probes and Solar Energy Conversion written by Michael Maus and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is focused on the effects of photoinduced intramolecular charge transfer (CT) in three differently twisted donor-acceptor (D-A) biphenyls. Taking into account a further pair of differently twisted D-A biaryls new universal insights into the photoinduced electronic and conformation dynamics of D-A biaryls are obtained. Furthermore, possible applications in fields of solar energy conversion and fluorescence sensing of microenvironments are demonstrated. Experimental means of stationary and time-resolved (ps to s) luminescence, transient absorption (sub-ps), polarization spectroscopy, high pressure and low temperature techniques are employed in conjunction with quantum chemical calculations. Twist angle and solvent dependent electron transfer (ET) interactions between the D and A aryl moieties are responsible for the low lying and solvatochromic intramolecular CT electron band which gains unusually high intensity through strong electronic coupling of the pure 1ET with the ground (S0) and 1La state. As regards the class of biaryl compounds, for the first time, an excited state electron transfer from the D to the A could be monitored by dual spectrally separated stimulated fluorescence bands with precursor-successor relationship on a sub-ps timescale for the D-A biphenyls. It is concluded that, in additon to the electronic interaction of 1ET with S0 and 1La, the electronic interaction with a close lying 1Lb state plays a fundamental role in the ET dynamics and the 1CT-S0 transition probability in D-A biaryls. The initial photoinduced conformational relaxation occurs towards planarity in all biaryls investigated. However, various results evidence that the highly twisted D-A biphenyl additionally performs a slow "excited state intramolecular back twist rotation" leading to a solvent polarity dependent conformational equilibrium between a more planar (CT) and a more twisted (CTR) conformer in S1(1CT). Using global analysis of the biexponential fluorescence decays as a function of temperature and pressure in medium polar solvents, the kinetics, thermodynamics, viscosity control and decomposed emission spectra associated with this adiabatic photoreaction are determined. The twist angle dependent ability of the D-A biphenyls to serve as fluorescent probes of micropolarity, changes of microviscosity or matrix order, protic solvents and pH is investigated. In particular, fluorescence sensing of pH seems to be promising.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluorescence methods are being used increasingly in biochemical, medical, and chemical research. This is because of the inherent sensitivity of this technique. and the favorable time scale of the phenomenon of fluorescence. 8 Fluorescence emission occurs about 10- sec (10 nsec) after light absorp tion. During this period of time a wide range of molecular processes can occur, and these can effect the spectral characteristics of the fluorescent compound. This combination of sensitivity and a favorable time scale allows fluorescence methods to be generally useful for studies of proteins and membranes and their interactions with other macromolecules. This book describes the fundamental aspects of fluorescence. and the biochemical applications of this methodology. Each chapter starts with the -theoreticalbasis of each phenomenon of fluorescence, followed by examples which illustrate the use of the phenomenon in the study of biochemical problems. The book contains numerous figures. It is felt that such graphical presentations contribute to pleasurable reading and increased understand ing. Separate chapters are devoted to fluorescence polarization, lifetimes, quenching, energy transfer, solvent effects, and excited state reactions. To enhance the usefulness of this work as a textbook, problems are included which illustrate the concepts described in each chapter. Furthermore, a separate chapter is devoted to the instrumentation used in fluorescence spectroscopy. This chapter will be especially valuable for those perform ing or contemplating fluorescence measurements. Such measurements are easily compromised by failure to consider a number of simple principles.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polariton chemistry is an emerging and intriguing field that seeks to address a fundamental question: Can we modify and control molecular properties by shaping the optical environment? By hybridizing light and matter and creating quasi-states that possess the properties of both, known as polaritons, can molecules harness photonic characteristics? We focus on intermolecular interactions in a strong light-matter coupling regime. More specifically, our research centers on the investigation of charge transfer events, with photocurrent or photoluminescence serving as our observables. For our photocurrent study, we looked into the photoexcitation of charged molecules, which transform into polaron-polaritons in a strong coupling regime. Fascinatingly, we have discovered evidence of an accelerated charge-transfer process when charged molecules are strongly coupled to light, as opposed to when they are not. The key finding lies in the distinct bias dependence observed between weakly and strongly coupled charged molecules within the same photonic structure. Weaker bias dependence of strongly coupled molecules, according to Onsager theory, indicates that a photoexcited polaron hops further away from its counter anion compare to weakly coupled case. Thus, we conclude that strong coupling regime enhances the intermolecular charge transfer rate. We explain the effect by considering the delocalized nature of polaritons and their ability to simultaneously sample all strongly coupled molecules, benefiting from molecules with fast charge-transfer rates. In our photoluminescence study, we sought a means to harness a donor exciton in donor-acceptor blends that feature high donor concentrations through the application of strong light-matter coupling. Our motivation was to utilize the delocalized nature of photons to promote the transmission of excitation from a distant donor to a donor in close proximity to an acceptor, thereby facilitating the formation of a charge-transfer state. We investigated two distinct systems in which exciton-polaritons originate from the first and second excited states of singlet excitons. Regrettably, we did not observe any systematic trends in the emission spectrum between excitons in strong and weak coupling regimes. We argue that temperature plays a critical role, and only at cryo temperatures where the coherent lifetime is much longer can the effect be observed. Unfortunately, unlike our photocurrent study, our investigation of the photoluminescence was conducted at room temperature. In the latter part of our research, we attempt to understand the effect of strong coupling on the nonlinear optical response of molecules. Specifically, we study electroabsorption (EA) which is responsible for the imaginary part of chi3 nonlinearity. We predict that the molecule with a degenerate excited state will have both linear and quadratic field dependencies of its EA response. Remarkably, we observe that the functional dependence of the EA response on the bias for the lower polariton (LP) strongly varies along the LP dispersion curve. When lower polariton approaches the energy of the uncoupled transition, its bias dependence becomes more quadratic; alternatively, when the energy of LP father away from the transition, the bias dependence is more linear. Furthermore, for both the uncoupled transition and middle polariton we observe the same strongly quadratic bias dependence, distinctly different from that for the lower polariton. Lastly, we have established the groundwork for an exploration of chi2 nonlinearity in an anisotropic organic crystal. We have verified the strong coupling regime for a primal crystal axis by altering the energy of an optical mode. We do not observe a strong coupling signature for light with polarization perpendicular to the primal crystal axis. We witness the strongest second harmonic signal when the incident light (fundamental) has twice the wavelength of the lower polariton, however, at the same time similar magnitude enhancement of SHG occurs at DBR sidebands. This preliminary finding undermines the notion that an exciton-polariton possesses strong hyperpolarizability. Additional measurements are suggested in the last chapter to solidify our findings.
