Journal ArticleDOI

Aggregation in a high-mobility n-type low-bandgap copolymer with implications on semicrystalline morphology.

TL;DR: It is concluded that film formation is mainly governed by the chain collapse, leading in general to a high aggregate content of ~45% and inhibits the formation of amorphous and disordered P(NDI2OD-T2) films.
Journal ArticleDOI

ortho-Fluoroazobenzenes: visible light switches with very long-lived Z isomers

TL;DR: A comprehensive study of the effect of substitution on the key photochemical properties of ortho-fluoroazobenzenes is reported, and the visible light photoconversions, quantum yields of isomerization, and thermal stabilities have been measured and rationalized by DFT calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum Chemical Investigation of Thermal Cis-to-Trans Isomerization of Azobenzene Derivatives: Substituent Effects, Solvent Effects, and Comparison to Experimental Data

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

The multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree-Fock method for quantum chemical calculations.

TL;DR: The multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree-Fock method is applied to electronic structure calculations and it is shown that quantum chemical information can be obtained with this explicitly time- dependent approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-dependent configuration-interaction calculations of laser-pulse-driven many-electron dynamics: Controlled dipole switching in lithium cyanide

TL;DR: One focus of the time-dependent calculations is the question of how fast the transition from the ionic ground state to a specific excited state that is embedded in a multitude of other states can be made, without creating an electronic wave packet.
