The chalcogen bond (ChB) is defined as a noncovalent interaction between the electron
density deficient region (so-called as σ or π hole) of a covalently bonded chalcogen atom …

In recent years, intramolecular noncovalent interaction has become an important means to
modulate the optoelectronic performances of organic/polymeric semiconductors. However, it …

The nitrogen bond in chemical systems occurs when there is evidence of a net attractive
