چکیده

A novel approach for improving photocurrent in a supramolecular solar cell, composed of zinc porphyrin-oxoporphyrinogen (ZnP-OxP) surface-modified TiO(2), by redox tuning through fluoride anion binding to the redox active host, OxP is demonstrated.

Exploring Step‐by‐Step Assembly of Nanoparticle:Cytochrome Biohybrid Photoanodes

Coupling light-harvesting semiconducting nanoparticles (NPs) with redox enzymes has been shown to create artificial photosynthetic systems that hold promise for the synthesis of solar fuels. High quantum yields require efficient electron transfer from the nanoparticle to the redox protein, a property that can be difficult to control. Here, we have compared binding and electron transfer between ...

Anchoring of self-assembled monolayers of unsymmetrically-substituted chromophores with an oxoporphyrinogen surface clamp.

Multichromophoric molecules of conjugated N-substituted oxoporphyrinogens have been assembled on the Au(111) surface using solution and sublimation techniques. The operation of the oxoporphyrinogen moiety as a surface anchoring unit in the formation of molecular monolayers has been demonstrated.

Performance of Chemically Modified TiO2-poly (vinylidene fluoride) DCMD for Nutrient Isolation and Its Antifouling Properties

The surface properties of TiO2-PVDF nanocomposite membranes were investigated by incorporating different chemically modified TiO2 nanoparticles into the poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix. The nanocomposite membranes were prepared via dual coagulation bath diffusion and the induced phase inversion method. The membrane surface morphologies were investigated by using SEM and AFM and related...

Supramolecular tetrad featuring covalently linked bis(porphyrin)-phthalocyanine coordinated to fullerene: construction and photochemical studies.

A multimodular donor-acceptor tetrad featuring a bis(zinc porphyrin)-(zinc phthalocyanine) ((ZnP-ZnP)-ZnPc) triad and bis-pyridine-functionalized fullerene was assembled by a "two-point" binding strategy, and investigated as a charge-separating photosynthetic antenna-reaction center mimic. The spectral and computational studies suggested that the mode of binding of the bis-pyridine-functionaliz...
