Azobenzenes are archetypal molecules that have a central role in fundamental and applied
research. Over the course of almost two centuries, the area of azobenzenes has witnessed …

Luminescent small, all‐organic molecules are of tremendous interest in materials and life
science applications. Nevertheless, targeted design requires a basic understanding of the …

The developments of the open-source OpenMolcas chemistry software environment since
spring 2020 are described, with a focus on novel functionalities accessible in the stable …

Azobenzene is a well‐known derivative of stimulus‐responsive molecular switches and has
shown superior performance as a functional material in biomedical applications. The results …

We have known of azobenzene for over 150 years, the past 80 of which have seen the study
and application of its photochromism. Azobenzene derivatives are now considered …

Reversible electron reservoir feature of redox non-innocent ligand is an important event from
the broader perspectives of metal–ligand cooperativity in catalysis as well as in introducing …

Photochemical reactions are widely modeled using the popular trajectory surface hopping
(TSH) method, an affordable mixed quantum-classical approximation to the full quantum …

Azobenzene is one of the most ubiquitous photoswitches in photochemistry and a
prototypical model for photoisomerizing systems. Despite this, its wavelength-dependent …

Overcrowded alkene based molecular motors and switches constitute a unique class of
photo-responsive systems due to their intrinsic chirality near the core CC bond, making them …

We combine sub-20 fs transient absorption spectroscopy with state-of-the-art computations
to study the ultrafast photoinduced dynamics of trans-azobenzene (AB). We are able to …
