Journal ArticleDOI
Nano-architectures by covalent assembly of molecular building blocks
TL;DR: It is shown that covalently bound molecular nanostructures can be formed on a gold surface upon thermal activation of porphyrin building blocks and their subsequent chemical reaction at predefined connection points, and it is demonstrated that the topology of these nanostructure can be precisely engineered by controlling the chemical structure of the building blocks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum Chemical Investigation of Thermal Cis-to-Trans Isomerization of Azobenzene Derivatives: Substituent Effects, Solvent Effects, and Comparison to Experimental Data
Jadranka Dokić,Marcel Gothe,Jonas Wirth,Maike V. Peters,Jutta Schwarz,Stefan Hecht,Peter Saalfrank +6 more
TL;DR: Quantum chemical calculations of various azobenzene (AB) derivatives have been carried out with the goal to describe the energetics and kinetics of their thermal cis --> trans isomerization, giving usually reliable activation energies and enthalpies when compared to experimentally determined values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoswitching of basicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption and Switching Properties of Azobenzene Derivatives on Different Noble Metal Surfaces: Au(111), Cu(111), and Au(100)
Micol Alemani,Sofia Selvanathan,Francisco Ample,Maike V. Peters,K. H. Rieder,Francesca Moresco,Christian Joachim,Stefan Hecht,Leonhard Grill +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption and switching behavior of 3,3′,5,5′-tetra-tert-butylazobenzene (meta-TBA) were investigated by low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy on three different metal substrates: Au(111), Cu(111, and Au(100).
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic decoupling approach to quantitative photoswitching in linear multiazobenzene architectures
TL;DR: The decoupling approach outlined herein provides the basis for constructing rigid rod architectures composed of multiple azobenzene photochromes, which display practically quantitative photoswitching properties, a necessary prerequisite to achieve highly efficient transduction of light energy directly into motion.
