Supramolecularly Engineered J-Aggregates Based on Perylene Bisimide Dyes

Markus Hecht et al.

Summary: The discovery of the self-assembly of cyanine dyes into J-aggregates had a significant impact on dye chemistry, leading to the emergence of new useful properties. Despite a good theoretical understanding of their structure-property relationships, examples of J-aggregates remained scarce due to the lack of supramolecular designs to guide their formation. The use of nature's supramolecular blueprint in the development of J-aggregates of perylene bisimides (PBIs) has shown promise in various applications, such as high-performance color pigments and organic semiconductors.

π-Extended perylene diimide double-heterohelicenes as ambipolar organic semiconductors for broadband circularly polarized light detection

Li Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, a novel approach of skeleton merging was introduced to address the dilemma between strong coupling with circular polarized light and high charge-carrier mobility in high-performance chiral organic semiconducting molecules. The resulting pi-extended double helicene structure exhibits high dissymmetry factor, extended pi-planar system for charge transport properties, near-infrared light absorption, and ambipolar charge transport abilities, enabling high photoresponsivity and external quantum efficiency in both p- and n-type modes under NIR light irradiation. These characteristics allow for high-performance broadband CPL detections up to the NIR spectral region.

A History and Perspective of Non-Fullerene Electron Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells

Ardalan Armin et al.

Summary: Organic solar cells have evolved from relying on fullerenes as acceptors to the emergence of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) which have significantly improved cell efficiencies. However, NFAs challenge the traditional understanding of organic solar cell operation, requiring rethinking of morphology, charge generation, and recombination.

Chiral Perylene Bisimide Dyes by Interlocked Arene Substituents in the Bay Area

Rebecca Renner et al.

Summary: A series of Perylene Bisimide (PBI) dyes with various aryl substituents in 1,6,7,12 bay positions have been synthesized through Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. These molecules exhibit a large and fixed twist angle of the PBI pi-core due to high steric congestion, leading to substantial racemization barriers and the potential for isolation of enantiopure atropoisomers. Variable temperature NMR studies reveal a multitude of conformational isomers in solution, interconverted via smaller activation barriers, while their redox and optical properties have been characterized through various spectroscopic techniques.

Chiral spintronics

See-Hun Yang et al.

Summary: Spin currents generated by chiral structures can manipulate chiral topological magnetic excitations through chirality acquired in a spin-orbit interaction. When chiral domain walls form composite walls via antiferromagnetic exchange coupling, novel phenomena such as exchange coupling torque and domain wall drag are observed. This review discusses the recent progress in spin currents derived from or acting on chiral structures and their potential applications.

Perylene diimide based non-fullerene acceptors: top performers and an emerging class featuring N-annulation

Vikas Sharma et al.

Summary: The PDI chromophore has been widely used in organic electronics due to its strong visible light absorption and low-lying FMO energy levels, allowing for high power conversion efficiencies in organic solar cells. Recent advances in materials design have led to PDI-based solar cells reaching efficiencies upwards of 12%, with potential for high operating voltages in roll-to-roll compatible processed solar cells utilizing N-annulated PDIs.
