Abstract Currently available approaches to molecular‐scale logic gates are summarized and compared. These include: chemically‐controlled fluorescent transmittance‐based switches concerned with small molecules, DNA oligonucleotides fluorescence readout, oligonucleotide reactions DNA‐based catalysts, chemically‐gated photochromics, reversibly denaturable proteins, molecular machines optical electronic signals, two‐photon fluorophores multichromophoric transient switches. The photochemical...

Integrated "ICT chromophore-receptor" systems show ion-induced shifts in their electronic absorption spectra. The wavelength of observation can be used to reversibly configure the system any four logic operations permissible with a single input (YES, NOT, PASS 1, 0), under conditions ion and transmittance output. We demonstrate these dyes integrated into Tsien's calcium receptor, 1-2. Applying multiple inputs 1-2 also allows us perform two- or three-input OR NOR operations. weak fluorescence...
Three new luminescent and redox-active Ru(II) complexes containing novel dendritic polypyridine ligands have been synthesized, their absorption spectra, luminescence properties (both at room temperature in fluid solution 77 K rigid matrix), redox behavior investigated. The are made of 1,10-phenanthroline coordinating subunits carbazole groups as branching sites. first second generation species this class (L1 L2, respectively; see Figure 1 for structural formulas) prepared employed. metal...
Abstract Organic donor–acceptor–donor (D–A–D) polymers or small molecules are widely investigated in organic solar cells due to their broad light absorption, narrow band gap, excellent charge mobility, and exciton seperation at the interface. However, studies of conjugated with D–A–D molecule structures as photocatalytically active materials still rare. In this study, an unprecedented demonstration that photocatalytic activity can fact be affected by tuning D A is given. Especially, EBE...
Straightforward synthetic methodologies are reported for the functionalization of oligothiophenes with hydrogen-bonding motifs. Codeposition from a solution symmetric melamine-terminated electron-donor oligomers complementary barbiturate-labeled electron-acceptor fullerene resulted in homogeneous films. Incorporation into photovoltaic devices gave 2.5-fold enhancement light energy to electrical conversion when compared analogous systems non-hydrogen-bonding parent C(60). [reaction: see text]
BF(2)-Azadipyrromethene dyes are a promising class of NIR emitter (nonhalogenated) and photosensitizer (halogenated). Spectroscopic studies on benchmark example each type, including absorption (one two photon), time-resolved transient (ps-ms) fluorescence, reported. Fast photodynamics reveal that intense nanosecond fluorescence is quenched in brominated analog, giving rise to persistent (21 μs) signature. Kinetics for these changes determined ascribed the efficient population triplet state...
Abstract The light‐triggered, programmable rupture of cell‐sized vesicles is described, with particular emphasis on self‐assembled polymersome capsules. mechanism involves a hypotonic osmotic imbalance created by the accumulation photogenerated species inside lumen, which cannot be compensated owing to low water permeability membrane. This simple and versatile can adapted wealth hydrosoluble molecules, are either able generate reactive oxygen or undergo photocleavage. Ultimately, in...

Abstract Iodoperfluooralkylation of terminal alkenes and alkynes is effectively photo‐promoted by benzophenone 2 (BP) or the photoreducible copper(II) complex 1 . In particular, BP at mol% in methanol upon 365 nm irradiation with a low‐pressure mercury lamp (type TLC=thin layer chromatography, 6 W) results fast reaction excellent yields. Complex exhibited very similar reactivity, suggesting that reactions involving are likely to be governed photoactivation processes, rather than...
