Radiative transfer in luminescent solar concentrators

Sophia Haussener, Sha Li

A luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) offers a viable solution to spectrally convert and concentrate both direct and diffuse sunlight without the need for tracking. Its potential for commercialization is currently limited by the optical performance. A det ...

Peptide-Hypervalent Iodine Reagent Chimeras: Enabling Peptide Functionalization and Macrocyclization

Jérôme Waser, Christian Heinis, Xinjian Ji, Xingyu Liu

Herein, we report a novel strategy for the modification of peptides based on the introduction of highly reactive hypervalent iodine reagents-ethynylbenziodoxolones (EBXs)-onto peptides. These peptide-EBXs can be readily accessed, by both solution- and soli ...

Molecular engineering of low-cost, efficient, and stable photosensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Lukas Pfeifer, Jing Gao, Zhongjin Shen, Marina Freitag

The cost, stability, and photovoltaic performance of photosensi-tizers play a key role in the commercialization of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Herein, three novel sensitizers termed ZS10, ZS11, and ZS12 are described based on the simple chemical str ...

Isolation, Characterisation and Reactivity of N-Heterocyclic Diazoolefins

Paul Varava

Examples for applications of nitrous oxide in organic synthesis remain rare up until today. First mayor contributions of our group were published in 2012, when nitrous oxide was successfully captured by N-heterocyclic carbenes. Subsequent studies investiga ...

Learning the Exciton Properties of Azo-dyes

Ksenia Briling, Alberto Fabrizio, Sergio Vela Llausi

The ab initio determination of electronic excited state (ES) properties is the cornerstone of theoretical photochemistry. Yet, traditional ES methods become impractical when applied to fairly large molecules, or when used on thousands of systems. Machine l ...

Synthesis of NIR-Absorbing Squaraine Dyes and their Use in Organic Upconversion Devices

Karen Verena Strassel

Squaraines are organic dyes showing the advantages of a simple synthesis, high absorption coefficients and tunable bandgaps from the visible to the near-infrared (NIR) region. Their molecular structure is based on a polymethine chain and a donor-acceptor-d ...

Direct Photoexcitation of Ethynylbenziodoxolones: An Alternative to Photocatalysis for Alkynylation Reactions**

Jérôme Waser, Diana Cavalli, Franck Le Vaillant, Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos

Ethynylbenziodoxolones (EBXs) are commonly used as radical traps in photocatalytic alkynylations. Herein, we report that aryl-substituted EBX reagents can be directly activated by visible light irradiation. They act as both oxidants and radical traps, alle ...

Carbazol-phenyl-phenothiazine-based sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Lukas Pfeifer, Zhongjin Shen, Dan Ren, Wei Huang, Yunfei Jiao, Yi Ding

Heteroaromatic units are commonly used as pi-spacers for sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Here, we investigated the influence of the pi-spacer on the photophysical properties, electrochemical properties and photovoltaic performance of car ...
