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

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 …

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 …

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 …

In this work, we present the formation of H-and J-aggregates of amphiphilic centrosymmetric
diketopyrrolopyrroles containing aliphatic or aromatic amino groups. The inherent …

Linear dyes are molecular mimics of dipole antennas that receive UV–vis light. In this work
the assembly of linear dyes via the Langmuir technique to achieve uniform dye alignment for …

Langmuir monolayers can be assembled from molecules that change from a low-energy
orientation occupying a large cross-sectional area to a high-energy orientation of small …
