Conspectus π-Conjugation between heterocyclic donor (D) and acceptor (A) groups via a
polymethine chain leads to dyes with dipole moments greater than 10 D. These dipole …

The stabilization of black-phase formamidinium lead iodide (α-FAPbI3) perovskite under
various environmental conditions is considered necessary for solar cells. However …

Key approaches to the synthesis of merocyanine dyes are summarised. The dependence of
the dye properties on their chemical structure, the solvent nature and the aggregation type is …

The second edition of this best-selling handbook is bigger, more comprehensive, and now
completely current. In addition to thorough updates to the discussions featured in the first …

UV− vis and CD spectroscopy reveal that a tricationic cyanine dye spontaneously
assembles into a helical J-aggregate in the presence of a double-helical DNA template. The …

The progress and photosensitivity of quinolone antibiotics are briefly described. By the
photolysis of nalidixic acid, the loss of COOH group is observed. The photoreaction of …

Several squaraine tethered bichromophoric podand systems 1a− d and a
monochromophoric analogue 2 were prepared and characterized. Among these, the …

Two highly dipolar merocyanine dyes were tethered by a rigid tris (n-dodecyloxy) xylylene
unit that preorganizes the dyes for a supramolecular polymerization process through …

Covalent attachment of solvent-sensitive fluorescent dyes to proteins is a powerful tool for
studying protein conformational changes, ligand binding, or posttranslational modifications …

Squaraines are fluorescent, near‐IR dyes with promising photophysical properties for
biomedical applications. A limitation with these dyes is their inherent reactivity with …
