Photons as information carriers have the potential to meet the ever-increasing demands on
bandwidth and information density in fields such as information and communication …

Abstract π‐conjugated polymers find a range of applications in electronic devices. These
materials are generally highly disordered in terms of chain length and chain conformation …

Single-molecule optical detection and spectroscopy has emerged in recent years as an
excellent tool for structural and dynamic characterization of materials and biological systems …

This review updates recent progress in the understanding of the behaviour of polymers at
surfaces and interfaces, highlighting examples in the areas of wetting, dewetting …

Singlet exciton localization in conformationally disordered poly (3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) is
investigated via configuration interaction (singles) calculations of the Pariser–Parr–Pople …

We report the synthesis, characterization, and device incorporation of copolymers based on
a common green-emitting polyfluorene but containing a small proportion of a low energy …

We investigated photophysical properties of a donor–acceptor-type conjugated polymer by
means of ensemble and single-molecule spectroscopy as well as density functional theory …

We study electronic and optical properties of the low-bandgap co-polymer PCPDT-BT (poly-
cyclopentadithiophene-co-benzothiadiazole) and compare it with the corresponding homo …

We report photophysical properties of individual chains of the conjugated polymer MEH-PPV
in a concentrated solution of polystyrene. MEH-PPV chains diffusing freely in the solution …

Determining the molecular orientation at the single molecule level is of key importance for a
wide range of applications ranging from molecular electronic devices to biomedical …
