We report a method to convert discrete representations of molecules and from multidimensional continuous representation. This model allows us generate new for efficient exploration optimization through open-ended spaces chemical compounds. A deep neural network was trained on hundreds thousands existing structures construct three coupled functions: an encoder, decoder predictor. The encoder converts the representation molecule into real-valued vector, these vectors back molecular...

The high reactivity of acenes can reduce their potential applications in the field molecular electronics. Although pentacene is an important material for use organic field-effect transistors because its charge mobility, a major disadvantage hindering development applications.

ABSTRACT The first observation that PBBTPD, a low bandgap, ambipolar conjugated donor‐acceptor (DA) polymer based on benzobisthiadiazole (BBT), possesses an open‐shell singlet ground state as well thermally accessible triplet is described. Similarly, interesting electronic behavior in semiconducting organic DA oligomers BBT also observed. Theoretical predictions have suggested such due to the biradicaloid character of and we provide experimental evidence indicating these are correct....
Singlet exciton fission is a mechanism that could potentially enable solar cells to surpass the Shockley-Queisser efficiency limit by converting single high-energy photons into two lower-energy triplet excitons with minimal thermalization loss.
