The applicability of ruthenium tris (bipyridine) complexes in fields like photoactivated
chemotherapy or photocatalysis requires in-depth understanding of their excited state …

Enabling strong and long-lived NIR emission from complexes with earth-abundant metal
ions is exemplified by embedding chromium (III) in a very strong ligand field yielding the …

Bright, long‐lived emission from first‐row transition‐metal complexes is very challenging to
achieve. Herein, we present a new strategy relying on the rational tuning of energy levels …

Mounting evidence over the past 20 years suggests that photodynamic therapy (PDT), an
anticancer modality known mostly as a local treatment, has the capacity to invoke a systemic …

Photoactive metal complexes employing Earth‐abundant metal ions are a key to sustainable
photophysical and photochemical applications. We exploit the effects of an inversion center …

Ruthenium polypyridyl type complexes are potent photoactive compounds, and have found–
among others–a broad range of important applications in the fields of biomedical diagnosis …

Artificial photosynthetic systems that contain light-harvesting coordination complexes may
one day replace conventional non-renewable sources of energy with renewable solar …

The recently reported luminescent chromium (III) complex 13+([Cr (ddpd) 2] 3+; ddpd= N,
N′‐dimethyl‐N, N′‐dipyridine‐2‐yl‐pyridine‐2, 6‐diamine) shows exceptionally strong …

The elucidation of reaction mechanisms taking place in the excited state is a current
challenge for experimental and theoretical chemists. Ru (II) complexes have a long history …

Understanding the factors that determine the luminescence lifetime of transition metal
compounds is key for applications in photocatalysis and photodynamic therapy. Here we …
