ABSTRACT: The charge mobility is a key property in many electro-optical materials, with charge transfer (CT) taking place in a solid matrix of molecules. Large intermolecular electronic interaction is one of the key factors for a good CT rate, which is dependent on both intra- and intermolecular structures. The connection of the molecular structure with the intermolecular CT property would facilitate the search for a new material with desirable CT property, but currently it is still quite limited by the lack of knowledge for intermolecular configurations. In the present work, we study factors influencing the intermolecular configurations, and subsequently the CT property, in tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminium(III) (AlQ(3)) from all currently available crystal structures. We found that there exists a pair of CH-π interactions in a good majority of the π-π stacked bimolecular configurations. Such CH-π and π-π interacting structures are also seen in the crystal structures of many other similar molecules. With both experimental and simulated structures, we show that the CH-π interaction stabilizes the bimolecular configurations, and drives the structure towards a region with a higher electron transfer coupling and lower hole transfer coupling. This effect likely affects the electron transport property of AlQ(3), since it is consistent with recent experimental results, where AlQ(3) analogs with their CH-π interaction blocked either require a higher operating voltage in light-emitting devices [Sapochak et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2001, 123, 6300], or become bipolar in their charge mobilities [Liao et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2009, 131, 763]. CH-π interaction is commonly seen in aromatic molecules, which are frequently used as building blocks in molecules for electro-optical applications. Our work points out a possible way to enhance the desired CT property in the design of new materials.

ABSTRACT: We have studied the triplet energy transfer (TET) for photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes, the bacterial light-harvesting complex II (LH2) of Rhodospirillum molischianum and Rhodopseudomonas acidophila, and the peridinin-chlorophyll a protein (PCP) from Amphidinium carterae. The electronic coupling factor was calculated with the recently developed fragment spin difference scheme (You and Hsu, J. Chem. Phys. 2010, 133, 074105), which is a general computational scheme that yields the overall coupling under the Hamiltonian employed. The TET rates were estimated based on the couplings obtained. For all light-harvesting complexes studied, there exist nanosecond triplet energy transfer from the chlorophylls to the carotenoids. This result supports a direct triplet quenching mechanism for the photoprotection function of carotenoids. The TET rates are similar for a broad range of carotenoid triplet state energy, which implies a general and robust TET quenching role for carotenoids in photosynthesis. This result is also consistent with the weak dependence of TET kinetics on the type or the number of π conjugation lengths in the carotenoids and their analogues reported in the literature. We have also explored the possibility of forming triplet excitons in these complexes. In B850 of LH2 or the peridinin cluster in PCP, it is unlikely to have triplet exciton since the energy differences of any two neighboring molecules are likely to be much larger than their TET couplings. Our results provide theoretical limits to the possible photophysics in the light-harvesting complexes.

ABSTRACT: A new synthesis of 5,10,15-hexaaryltruxene derivatives has been developed. Experimental observations and theoretical calculations confirmed that the presence of aryl substituents on the sp(3)-hybridized bridge carbon atoms had an effect on the photophysical properties of the truxene core. Interestingly, the cage compound 11 possessing a distorted truxene core was verified by X-ray diffraction analysis; the influence of the peripheral aryl substituents on the photophysical properties of the truxene core was diminished because of its molecular rigidity.

ABSTRACT: Self-assembled, chair-shaped dirhenium(I) macrocyclic compounds featuring the two different bis-chelating quinone dianions (1, L = dhnq(2-); 2, L = dhaq(2-); H(2)dhnq = 6,11-dihydroxy-5,12-naphthacenedione; H(2)dhaq = 1,4-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone) that interface with two fac-Re(CO)(3) cores and a ditopic semirigid N-donor 1,4-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazol-1-ylmethyl)naphthalene (L' = p-NBimM) ligand coordinated to the remaining orthogonal site were prepared in high yields. Their structures were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Electrochemical assessments, using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and UV-vis-NIR spectroelectrochemistry (SEC), revealed the existence of two well-separated, single-electron quinone ligand-centered, reversibly accessible 0, -1, and -2 redox states. Among the two singly reduced radical complexes, the symmetrically bridged quinone complex 1(•-), showed a strong absorption in the NIR regions, which was not observed for the neutral and doubly reduced states, analogous to that of the free dhnq(3•-) quinone. In contrast, when 2 was reduced to 2(•-), a broad signal at 866 nm was observed, very similar to the reduced dhaq(3•-) quinone. This difference in spectral behavior in the singly reduced states is likely due to the annealed benzene ring in 1 and dhnq(2-) because of its symmetrical π-electron system, which is perturbed to a lesser degree compared to asymmetric 2 and dhaq(2-). Reduction to 1(•-) produces a small but not negligible g factor anisotropy (Δg = 0.024) in the electron spin resonance (ESR) signal, indicative of a very small metal-centered spin (5%), but 2(•-) shows a g value in the expected range for organic radicals (no detectable Δg). Thus, the combined investigations reveal that the singly reduced metallacycles are best described as being highly stable, noncommunicating, localized, quinonoid-centered radical complexes, [(CO)(3)Re(I)(μ-L(3•-))(μ-L')Re(I)(CO)(3)](•-).

ABSTRACT: We calculate the electron transfer (ET) rates for a series of heptacyclo[6.6.0.02,6.03,13.014,11.05,9.010,14]-tetradecane (HCTD) linked donor–acceptor molecules. The electronic coupling factor was calculated by the fragment charge difference (FCD) [19] and the generalized Mulliken–Hush (GMH) schemes [20]. We found that the FCD is less prone to problems commonly seen in the GMH scheme, especially when the coupling values are small. For a 3-state case where the charge transfer (CT) state is coupled with two different locally excited (LE) states, we tested with the 3-state approach for the GMH scheme [30], and found that it works well with the FCD scheme. A simplified direct diagonalization based on Rust's 3-state scheme was also proposed and tested. This simplified scheme does not require a manual assignment of the states, and it yields coupling values that are largely similar to those from the full Rust's approach. The overall electron transfer (ET) coupling rates were also calculated.

ABSTRACT: A detailed study of the synthesis and photophysical properties of a new series of dipolar organic photosensitizers that feature a 1,3-cyclohexadiene moiety integrated into the π-conjugated structural backbone has been carried out. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on these structurally simple dyes have shown appreciable photo-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency, with the highest one up to 4.03 %. Solvent-dependent fluorescence studies along with the observation of dual emission on dye 4 b and single emission on dyes 4 a and 32 suggest that dye 4 b possesses a highly polar emissive excited state located at a lower-energy position than at the normal emissive excited state. A detailed photophysical investigation in conjunction with computational studies confirmed the twisted intramolecular charge-transfer (TICT) state to be the lowest emissive excited state for dye 4 b in polar solvents. The relaxation from higher-charge-injection excited states to the lowest TICT state renders the back-electron transfer process a forbidden one and significantly retards the charge recombination to boost the photocurrent. The electrochemical impedance under illumination and transient photovoltage decay studies showed smaller charge resistance and longer electron lifetime in 4 b-based DSSC compared to the DSSCs with reference dyes 4 a and 32, which further illustrates the positive influence of the TICT state on the performance of DSSCs.

ABSTRACT: To calculate the electronic couplings in both inter- and intramolecular triplet energy transfer (TET), we have developed the "fragment spin difference" (FSD) scheme. The FSD was a generalization from the "fragment charge difference" (FCD) method of Voityuk et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 117, 5607 (2002)] for electron transfer (ET) coupling. In FSD, the spin population difference was used in place of the charge difference in FCD. FSD is derived from the eigenstate energies and populations, and therefore the FSD couplings contain all contributions in the Hamiltonian as well as the potential overlap effect. In the present work, two series of molecules, all-trans-polyene oligomers and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, were tested for intermolecular TET study. The TET coupling results are largely similar to those from the previously developed direct coupling scheme, with FSD being easier and more flexible in use. On the other hand, the Dexter's exchange integral value, a quantity that is often used as an approximate for the TET coupling, varies in a large range as compared to the corresponding TET coupling. To test the FSD for intramolecular TET, we have calculated the TET couplings between zinc(II)-porphyrin and free-base porphyrin separated by different numbers of p-phenyleneethynylene bridge units. Our estimated rate constants are consistent with experimentally measured TET rates. The FSD method can be used for both intermolecular and intramolecular TET, regardless of their symmetry. This general applicability is an improvement over most existing methodologies.

ABSTRACT: A novel series of dipolar organic dyes containing diarylamine as the electron donor, 2-cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor, and fluorene and a heteroaromatic ring as the conjugating bridge have been developed and characterized. These metal-free dyes exhibited very high molar extinction coefficients in the electronic absorption spectra and have been successfully fabricated as efficient nanocrystalline TiO(2) dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The solar-energy-to-electricity conversion efficiencies of DSSCs ranged from 4.92 to 6.88%, which reached 68-96% of a standard device of N719 fabricated and measured under the same conditions. With a TiO(2) film thickness of 6 microm, DSSCs based on these dyes had photocurrents surpassing that of the N719-based device. DFT computation results on these dyes also provide detailed structural information in connection with their high cell performance.

ABSTRACT: A series of donor-pi-acceptor-type organic dyes based on 1-alkyl-1H-imidazole spacers 1-5 have been developed and characterized. The two electron donors are at positions 4 and 5 of the imidazole, while the electron-accepting cyanoacrylic acid is incorporated at position 2 by a spacer-containing heteroaromatic rings, such as thiophene and thiazole. Detailed investigation on the relationship between the structure, spectral and electrochemical properties, and performance of DSSC is described here. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) using dyes as the sensitizers exhibit good efficiencies, ranging from 3.06 to 6.35 %, which reached 42-87 % with respect to that of N719-based device (7.33 %) fabricated and measured under similar conditions. Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations have been performed on the dyes, and the results show that both electron donors can contribute to electron injection upon photo-excitation, either directly or indirectly by internal conversion to the lowest excited state.

ABSTRACT: The transport of charge via electrons and the transport of excitation energy via excitons are two processes of fundamental importance in diverse areas of research. Characterization of electron transfer (ET) and excitation energy transfer (EET) rates are essential for a full understanding of, for instance, biological systems (such as respiration and photosynthesis) and opto-electronic devices (which interconvert electric and light energy). In this Account, we examine one of the parameters, the electronic coupling factor, for which reliable values are critical in determining transfer rates. Although ET and EET are different processes, many strategies for calculating the couplings share common themes. We emphasize the similarities in basic assumptions between the computational methods for the ET and EET couplings, examine the differences, and summarize the properties, advantages, and limits of the different computational methods. The electronic coupling factor is an off-diagonal Hamiltonian matrix element between the initial and final diabatic states in the transport processes. ET coupling is essentially the interaction of the two molecular orbitals (MOs) where the electron occupancy is changed. Singlet excitation energy transfer (SEET), however, contains a Frster dipole-dipole coupling as its most important constituent. Triplet excitation energy transfer (TEET) involves an exchange of two electrons of different spin and energy; thus, it is like an overlap interaction of two pairs of MOs. Strategies for calculating ET and EET couplings can be classified as (1) energy-gap-based approaches, (2) direct calculation of the off-diagonal matrix elements, or (3) use of an additional operator to describe the extent of charge or excitation localization and to calculate the coupling value. Some of the difficulties in calculating the couplings were recently resolved. Methods were developed to remove the nondynamical correlation problem from the highly precise coupled cluster models for ET coupling. It is now possible to obtain reliable ET couplings from entry-level excited-state Hamiltonians. A scheme to calculate the EET coupling in a general class of systems, regardless of the contributing terms, was also developed. In the past, empirically derived parameters were heavily invoked in model description of charge and excitation energy drifts in a solid-state device. Recent advances, including the methods described in this Account, permit the first-principle quantum mechanical characterization of one class of the parameters in such descriptions, enhancing the predictive power and allowing a deeper understanding of the systems involved.

ABSTRACT: The relaxation dynamics of excited electronic states of [(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diyldi-2,1-ethenediyl]bis(dimethylsilane) dissolved in various solvents with varied polarity and viscosity have been investigated. Upon excitation at wavelength 266 nm, we measured the fluorescence curves that exhibit a rise time constant approximately 100 fs, and two decay time constants, 7-65 ps and approximately 1 ns. We attribute the former decay to upper excited states to the S(1) state, and the latter decay to geometric relaxation and the lifetime of the S(1) state. Only the tens of picosecond decay shows a dependence on the solvent viscosity, indicating that the torsional motion dominates the relaxation. Theoretical calculations were performed to obtain the optimized structures of the free [(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diyldi-2,1-ethenediyl]bis(dimethylsilane) molecule in its ground and first excited states with methods B3LYP/6-311G(d) and CIS/6-311G(d), respectively. The results of these calculations show that the dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is approximately 34 degrees for trans and approximately 38 degrees for cis conformers in the ground state and that the first excited state has a planar structure, in agreement with the experimental results that indicate that the torsional motion of two phenyl groups elevates the relaxation of the S(1) state. Enhanced vibrational relaxation of S(1) in alcoholic solvents is observed. Rapid relaxation in methanol-OH compared with that in methanol-OD is explained by the excess energy dissipated efficiently through high-frequency vibrational mode (>500 cm(-1)).

ABSTRACT: The observation of bridge-mediated excitation energy transfer (EET) has raised questions on the physical origin of such an effect. In this work, we studied the effect of bridge fragments in the Coulomb coupling, the major contribution to the electronic coupling in an EET process. For a series of ortho-phenyleneethynylene oligomers spaced donor-acceptors, we found that a large influence of the bridge fragment in EET coupling is through changes in the Coulomb couplings. Both enhancement and screening effects of the bridge were observed as the EET rates were modified by a factor of 0.3-23 with an intervening bridge in our calculations. The dependency of EET couplings on the orientation of transition dipoles of the donor and acceptor from quantum mechanical computations is very similar to that of a simple classical dielectric model. Our work shows that the bridge fragments can modify the Coulomb coupling with their polarizability by providing an optical dielectric medium between the donor and acceptor. In particular, when the transition dipoles of the donor and acceptor were longitudinal to a polarizable bridge, the EET rates were enhanced by one order of magnitude, as compared to the values of through-space models. Our results offer important insights into the design of efficient energy transfer systems.

ABSTRACT: Series of dipolar dyes containing pyrrole-based conjugate spacers between arylamine donor and the 2-cyanoacrylic acid acceptor have been synthesized. These compounds exhibit both π−π*and charge-transfer transition in the absorption spectra. Quantum computation results indicate that the pyrrole moieties have larger dihedral angles with its neighboring units, leading to less interaction between the units and, therefore, better charge separation. It also acts as a secondary electron donor upon photoexcitation. The oxidation potentials of arylamine in these compounds are affected by the heteroaromatic conjugated spacers. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) using these materials as the sensitizers exhibit good performance, with conversion efficiencies ranging from 4.77% to 6.18%. These values are 66−86% of the standard cell from N719 (7.19%).

ABSTRACT: Series of dyes based on 1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole chromophores were developed and characterized. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) using the dyes as the sensitizers exhibited good efficiencies, ranging from 2.95 to 4.68%, which reached 45−70% with respect to that of an N719-based device fabricated under similar conditions. Incorporation of arylamine moieties at 1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole was found to retard charge recombination of the electrons in the conduction band of TiO2 with the oxidized dyes. In contrast, incorporation of hydrophobic dodecanyl chains at 1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole reduced the dark current and improved the device efficiency. Results of TDDFT computation on the compounds are in support of the charge-transfer character of the compounds and consistent with the device performance. A cascade of charge separation is possible for compounds with arylamine moieties via an internal conversion from a bright higher excited state to a long-range charge separated state. Our results indicate that the extent of charge separation in the excited state is an important factor for DSSC efficiency.

ABSTRACT: Photothermal calorimetry and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to determine the relaxations of the photoexcited singlet state of two PPV and polyfluorene oligomers, (E,E)-1,4-bis[(2-benzyloxy)styryl]benzene (PVDOP) and ter(9,9'-spirobifluorene) (TSBF). The decay rates of different S1 relaxation channels, which include intersystem crossing (ISC), radiative, and nonradiative decay can be determined by the combination of photoacoustic calorimetry (PAC) and the time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) technique. The triplet state energy level is determined by the phosphorescence (Ph) spectra recorded at 77 K. The ISC yields are approximately 3% and 6% for PVDOP and TSBF, respectively. The T1 to S0 transition decay rate is acquired by PAC and photothermal beam deflection (PBD) measurements. The triplet state decay rate is 17 and 21 ms(-1) at room temperature. The Ph intensity decay at 77 K shows that the triplet state lifetime increases by 4 orders of magnitude, as compared to room temperature.

ABSTRACT: To model gene transcription kinetics, empirical fitting with the Hill function or S-system is often used. In this study, we derived an analytical expression for gene transcription rates in a manner similar to that developed for enzyme kinetics to describe the kinetics of gene transcription mediated by dimeric transcription factors (TFs) such as Gcn4p, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae master gene regulator. We showed that the analytical rate expression and its parameters estimated from several sets of experimental data could accurately reproduce the experimentally measured promoter-binding activity of Gcn4p. Furthermore, the analytical rate expression allowed us to derive analytically, rather than fit empirically, the parameters of the Hill function and S-system for use in modelling transcription kinetics. We found that a plot of gene transcription rate against Gcn4p concentration gave a sigmoidal dose-response curve with a positive co-operativity Hill coefficient (approximately 1.25), in accordance with previous experimental findings on the promoter binding of dimeric TFs. The characteristics of the dose-response curve around the estimated cellular Gcn4p concentration suggest that transcription regulation is efficiently controlled under physiological conditions. This work is a useful initial step towards analytically modelling and simulating complicated gene transcription networks.

ABSTRACT: MOTIVATION: To study biology from the systems level, mathematical models that describe the time-evolution of the system offer useful insights. Quantitative information is required for constructing such models, but such information is rarely provided. RESULTS: We propose a scheme-based on random searches over a parameter space, according to criteria set by qualitative experimental observations-for inferring quantitative parameters from qualitative experimental results. We used five mutant constraints to construct genetic network models for sensory organ precursor formation in Drosophila development. Most of the models were capable of generating expression patterns for the gene Enhancer of split that were compatible with experimental observations for wild type and two Notch mutants. We further examined factors differentiating the neural fate among cells in a proneural cluster, and found two opposite driving forces that bias the choice between middle cells and the peripheral cells. Therefore, it is possible to build numerical models from mutant screening and to study mechanisms behind the complicated network.

ABSTRACT: The dynamical correlation effect in electron transfer (ET) coupling was studied in this work, for cases where electrons tunnel through a many-electron environment. The ET couplings for three different bridge-mediated model systems were calculated: (I) trans-alkyl chains [H2C-(CH2)n-CH2, n = 2-10], (II) two isomers of trans-1,4-dimethylenecyclohexane, and (III) two ethylenes spaced by a saturated ethane molecule. The couplings were calculated as half energy gaps of the two lowest adiabatic states. The dynamical correlation was included with spin-flip (SF) and ionization potential or electron affinity coupled-cluster singles and doubles (SF-CCSD and IP/EA-CCSD) and a DeltaCCSD scheme. The direct coupling (DC) scheme is also used as a way to obtain a solution with nondynamical correlation, since DC uses approximated eigenstates that are symmetry-restoring linear combinations of two symmetry-broken unrestricted Hartree-Fock configurations. For all cases tested except for one, results from the DC scheme closely follow the CCSD data, indicating that the dual-configuration solutions can be a good approximation of wave functions with nondynamical correlation included, but there exist exceptions. Comparing the DC results with SF-CCSD and IP or EA-CCSD data, we concluded that the dynamical correlation effect is small for most of the cases we tested.

ABSTRACT: Triplet-triplet (TT) energy transfer requires two molecular fragments to exchange electrons that carry different spin and energy. In this paper, we analyze and report values of the electronic coupling strengths for TT energy transfer. Two different methods were proposed and tested: (1) Directly calculating the off-diagonal Hamiltonian matrix element. This direct coupling scheme was generalized from the one used for electron transfer coupling, where two spin-localized unrestricted Hartree-Fock wave functions are used as the zero-order reactant and product states, and the off-diagonal Hamiltonian matrix elements are calculated directly. (2) From energy gaps derived from configuration-interaction-singles (CIS) scheme. Both methods yielded very similar results for the systems tested. For TT coupling between a pair of face-to-face ethylene molecules, the exponential attenuation factor is 2.59 A(-1)(CIS6-311+G(**)), which is about twice as large as typical values for electron transfer. With a series of fully stacked polyene pairs, we found that the TT coupling magnitudes and attenuation rates are very similar irrespective of their molecular size. If the polyenes were partially stacked, TT couplings were much reduced, and they decay more rapidly with distance than those of full-stacked systems. Our results showed that the TT coupling arises mainly from the region of close contact between the donor and acceptor frontier orbitals, and the exponential decay of the coupling with separation depends on the details of the molecular contacts. With our calculated results, nanosecond or picosecond time scales for TT energy-transfer rates are possible.
