Journal ArticleDOI
Low band gap polycyclic hydrocarbons: from closed-shell near infrared dyes and semiconductors to open-shell radicals
TL;DR: In this review, a summary will be given on a series of low band gap polycyclic hydrocarbons about their synthesis, physical properties and material applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pro-aromatic and anti-aromatic π-conjugated molecules: an irresistible wish to be diradicals
Zebing Zeng,Xueliang Shi,Chunyan Chi,Juan T. López Navarrete,Juan Casado,Jishan Wu,Jishan Wu +6 more
TL;DR: This critical review first introduces the fundamental electronic structure of Kekulé diradicals within the concepts of anti-aromaticity and pro-Aromaticity in the context of Hückel aromaticity and diradical character.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene oxide/ferric hydroxide composites for efficient arsenate removal from drinking water.
TL;DR: A series of novel composites based on graphene oxide (GO) cross-linked with ferric hydroxide was developed for effective removal of arsenate from contaminated drinking water, and the efficiency of arsenates removal was decreased when pH was increased to higher than 8.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-annulated perylene as an efficient electron donor for porphyrin-based dyes: enhanced light-harvesting ability and high-efficiency Co(II/III)-based dye-sensitized solar cells.
Jie Luo,Mingfei Xu,Renzhi Li,Kuo-Wei Huang,Changyun Jiang,Qingbiao Qi,Wangdong Zeng,Jie Zhang,Chunyan Chi,Peng Wang,Jishan Wu,Jishan Wu +11 more
TL;DR: Detailed physical measurements, density functional theory calculations, and photovoltaic characterizations disclosed that the energy level alignment, the molecular orbital profile, and dye aggregation all played very important roles on the interface electron transfer and charge recombination kinetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
