Solar fuel production often starts with the energy from light being absorbed by an assembly
of molecules; this electronic excitation is subsequently transferred to a suitable acceptor. For …

The past decade has seen rapid advances in our understanding of how coherent and
vibronic phenomena in biological photosynthetic systems aid in the efficient transport of …

Information is created, processed, transported, and detected using electrons, photons,
phonons, or plasmons. Of these basic components of information technology, utilization of …

During the process and operation of the dyes, the wastes produced were commonly found to
contain organic and inorganic impurities leading to risks in the ecosystem and biodiversity …

We investigate the influence of an external, static electric field upon the relationship between
the structure, spatial distribution of electron density, and linear and nonlinear polarizabilities …

The development of structure–property relationships for monodisperse oligomers has been
extremely useful to rationalize the properties of high molecular weight linear π‐conjugated …

Functional organic materials with enhanced two‐photon absorption lead to new
technologies in the fields of chemistry, biology, and photonics. In this article we review …

Electro-optic (EO) modulators encode electrical signals onto fiber optic transmissions. High
drive voltages limit gain and noise levels. Typical polymeric and lithium niobate modulators …

We present a quantum-chemical analysis of the molecular structure and second-and third-
order polarizabilities in a series of promising nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores, the …

Predicting the electronic structure of extended organic molecules constitutes an important
fundamental task of modern chemistry. Studies of electronic excitations, charge-transfer …
