The construction of ultrathin membranes from linearly aligned π-electron systems is
advantageous for targeted energy, charge, or mass transfer. The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) …

Transition-metal-based donor–acceptor systems can produce long-lived excited charge-
transfer states by visible-light irradiation. The novel ruthenium (II) polypyridyl type complexes …

Layers of aligned dyes are key to photo‐driven charge separation in dye sensitized solar
cells, but cannot be exploited as rectifying membranes in photocatalysis to separate half …

Supramolecular dye structures, which are often ruled by π–π interactions between planar
chromophores, crucially determine the optoelectronic properties of layers and interfaces …

In this work, we assemble amphiphilic iron (III) corroles at air‐water interfaces into well‐
defined quasi‐two‐dimensional molecular monolayers and theirs stacks for sensing of nitric …

Organic solar cells have recently experienced tremendous efficiency improvements, but their
longevity is still limited by morphological degradation, among other factors. We demonstrate …

π–π interactions decisively shape the supramolecular structure and functionality of π-
conjugated molecular semiconductor materials. Despite the customizable molecular …

The processing and material properties of commercial organic semiconductors, for eg
fullerenes is largely controlled by their precise arrangements, specially intermolecular …

We demonstrate the potential of photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) to study the
self-assembly of dye monolayers in situ. Beyond the determination of adsorption kinetics at …

We present here a fundamental study on the miscibility between a prototype amphiphilic dye
and alkylic and arylic Langmuir monolayers. Embedding dyes in such matrices is crucial for …
