Solar energy has a great potential as a clean, cheap, renewable and sustainable energy
source, but it must be captured and transformed into useful forms of energy as plants do. An …

This review summarizes recent advances in the use of porphyrins, phthalocyanines, and
related compounds as components of solar cells, including organic molecular solar cells …

This is the second set of Handbook of Porphyrin Science. Porphyrins, phthalocyanines and
their numerous analogues and derivatives are materials of tremendous importance in …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) employs the combination of nontoxic photosensitizers and
visible light that is absorbed by the chromophore to produce long-lived triplet states that can …

Since the three-dimensional electron-accepting fullerene has been found to be an excellent
building block for self-assembled supramolecular systems, we have investigated …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses the combination of nontoxic dyes and harmless visible
light to produce reactive oxygen species that can kill cancer cells and infectious …

The first example of covalently linked free-base corrole− fullerene dyads is reported. In the
newly synthesized dyads, the free-energy calculations performed by employing the redox …

Animal models, particularly rodents, are major translational models for evaluating novel
anticancer therapeutics. In this review, different types of nanostructure‐based …

The review concentrates on supermolecular electron-donor–acceptor systems composed of
porphyrin dyes covalently linked to fullerene. These model systems are of a great …

In recent years, application of calculated density functional theory Kohn–Sham (DFT-KS)
orbitals and eigenvalues have gained increased popularity due to their ability to display and …
