Journal ArticleDOI

Indigo and Tyrian Purple – From Ancient Natural Dyes to Modern Organic Semiconductors

TL;DR: The history of indigo dye and its deriv- ative Tyrian purple, from their roles in the ancient world to recent research showing the semiconducting properties of indigoids is described in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ambipolar organic field effect transistors and inverters with the natural material Tyrian Purple

TL;DR: In this article, X-ray diffraction of Tyrian Purple films reveals a highly-ordered structure with a single preferential orientation, attributed to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, with a band gap of ∼1.8 eV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Semiconductor Micro- And Nanocrystals: From Colloidal Syntheses to (Opto-)Electronic Devices

TL;DR: The semiconducting nanocrystals described here offer a cheap, nontoxic, and environmentally friendly alternative to inorganic nanocry crystals as well as a new paradigm for obtaining organic semiconductor materials from commercial colorants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectral and Photophysical Studies of Substituted Indigo Derivatives in Their Keto Forms

TL;DR: Evidence is presented which supports the idea that intramolecular (and possibly some intermolecular) proton transfer can explain the high efficiency of internal conversion in indigo.
