Two-photon polymerization initiators for three-dimensional optical data storage and microfabrication

TL;DR: In this article, a class of π;-conjugated compounds that exhibit large δ (as high as 1, 250 × 10−50 cm4 s per photon) and enhanced two-photon sensitivity relative to ultraviolet initiators were developed and used to demonstrate a scheme for three-dimensional data storage which permits fluorescent and refractive read-out, and the fabrication of 3D micro-optical and micromechanical structures, including photonic-bandgap-type structures.

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.

Zethrenes, extended p-quinodimethanes, and periacenes with a singlet biradical ground state.

TL;DR: This Account discusses the chemistry and physics of three types of PHs with a significant singlet biradical character, primarily developed in this group, and finds that Clar's aromatic sextet rule, which is useful for the closed-shell PAHs, can also predict the relative biradicals character of benzenoid PH-based singletBiradicaloids.

Diindeno-fusion of an anthracene as a design strategy for stable organic biradicals

TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization of a molecule based on the diindeno[b,i]anthracene framework that exhibits pronounced open-shell character yet possesses remarkable stability is reported, demonstrating the rational design and synthesis of an air- and temperature-stable biradical compound.

Diradical Character View of Singlet Fission

TL;DR: The feasibility conditions of singlet fission on the excitation energy differences are revealed as functions of the multiple diradical characters yi [defined by the occupation numbers of the LUNO + i (i = 0, 1,...), where 0 ≤ yi ≤ 1 and yi ≥ yj (i > j)] using the linear H4 full configuration interaction model as discussed by the authors.

Two-Photon Laser Scanning Fluorescence Microscopy

TL;DR: The fluorescence emission increased quadratically with the excitation intensity so that fluorescence and photo-bleaching were confined to the vicinity of the focal plane as expected for cooperative two-photon excitation.

Finer features for functional microdevices

TL;DR: Micromachines can be created with higher resolution using two-photon absorption, and the results can be higher resolution than previously reported using single photon absorption techniques.

Design of Organic Molecules with Large Two-Photon Absorption Cross Sections

TL;DR: The combination of large delta and high fluorescence quantum yield or triplet yield exhibited by molecules developed here offers potential for unprecedented brightness in two-photon fluorescent imaging or enhanced photosensitivity in two -photon sensitization, respectively.
