Abstract This Focus Review describes the emerging class of near‐infrared (NIR) organic
compounds containing the conjugated polyene, polymethine, and donor–acceptor …

The electronic properties of linear π-conjugated systems (LCSs) have acquired a growing
importance in many areas of modern chemistry and physics of condensed matter. At the …

The Raman spectra of a wide range of disordered and amorphous carbons have been
measured under excitation from 785 to 229 nm. The dispersion of peak positions and …

The nature of main in-plane skeleton Raman modes (C C and C–C stretch) of poly (3-
hexylthiophene)(P3HT) in pristine and its blend thin films with [6, 6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid …

Topological band theory predicts that a topological electronic phase transition between two
insulators must proceed via closure of the electronic gap. Here, we use this transition to …

Aromaticity is a useful concept in a variety of areas of chemistry including conjugated
polymers, which is the focus of this review. Although loosely defined, the term “aromaticity” 1 …

Luminescence in organic conjugated polymers is considered in this article, which tries to
clarify some of the issues related to the nature of the emitting species. A comparison of …

Reflecting rapid growth in research and development on organic/polymeric electronic and
photonic materials and devices, Introduction to Organic Electronic and Optoelectronic …

Abstract Cyclized‐polyacrylonitrile (cyclized‐PAN) is used as a conformal coating on nano‐
Si for highly reversible anodes. Cyclization of PAN proceeds by limiting the pyrolysis to 300 …

Herein, the ultrafast photoinduced dynamics and vibrational coherences for two
perylenebisimide (PBI) H-aggregates showcase the formation of the excimer state and the …
