Organic semiconductors can be designed and constructed in π‐stacked structures instead of
the conventional π‐conjugated structures. Through‐space interaction (TSI) occurs in π …

The design of optimal light-harvesting (supra) molecular systems and materials is one of the
most challenging frontiers of science. Theoretical methods and computational models play a …

Linear, sp-hybridised, 1-dimensional (1D) all-carbon wires are conceptually the simplest π-
conjugated organic molecules. Their fundamental experimental and theoretical properties …

Conjugated poly-ynes and poly (metalla-ynes) constitute an important class of new materials
with potential application in various domains of science. The key factors responsible for the …

In recent years, porphyrins with a similar structure to chlorophyll are often used as
photosensitizers or reaction centers to improve the light absorption capacity or catalytic …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) are two promising
methodologies for cancer therapy. Although a variety of materials which can be used in PDT …

Bottom-up approaches have gained significant attention recently for the creation of nano-
sized, ordered functional structures and materials. Stepwise coordination techniques, in …

A series of fullerene (C 60)-modified anatase TiO 2 (a-TiO 2) nanocomposites with different
weight loadings of C 60 were successfully synthesized by a simple solution phase method …

Single-molecule conductance generally decays exponentially with the length of the
molecule when the transport mechanism is a coherent tunneling process. However, it was …

In this review, we survey the role of carbon-based nanomaterials in energy-conversion
schemes. In particular, we highlight charge-transfer processes on the molecular scale in sp …
