Donor-Acceptor Type Covalent Organic Frameworks

Intermolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect has been widely studied in both small molecules and linear polymers. Covalently-bonded donor-acceptor pairs with tunable bandgaps and photoelectric properties endow these materials with potential applications in optoelectronics, fluorescent bioimaging, and sensors, etc. However, owing to the lack of charge transfer pathway or effective separation of charge carriers, unfavorable charge recombination gives rise to inevitable energy loss. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can be mediated with various geometry- and property-tailored building blocks, where donor (D) and acceptor (A) segments are connected by covalent bonds and can be finely arranged to form highly ordered networks (namely D−A COFs). The unique structural features of D−A COFs render the formation of segregated D−A stacks, thus provides pathways and channels for effective charge carriers transport. This review highlights the significant progress on D−A COFs over the past decade with emphasis on design principles, growing structural diversities, and promising application potentials.

A Conjugated Thiophene‐Based Rotaxane: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Modeling

A dithiophene rotaxane 1 ?β‐CD and its shape‐persistent corresponding dumbbell 1 were synthesized and fully characterized. 2D NOESY experiments, supported by molecular dynamics calculations, revealed a very mobile macrocycle (β‐CD). Steady‐state and time‐resolved photoluminescence experiments in solution were employed to elucidate the excited‐state dynamics for both systems and to explore the effect of cyclodextrin encapsulation. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of 1 ?β‐CD was found to be blueshifted with respect to the dumbbell 1 (2.81 and 2.78 eV, respectively). Additionally, in contrast to previous observations, neither PL spectra nor the decay kinetics of both threaded and unthreaded systems showed changes upon increasing the concentration or changing the polarity of the solutions, thereby providing evidence for a lack of tendency toward aggregation of the unthreaded backbone.     

DNA‐Based Polymers as Chiral Templates for Second‐Order Nonlinear Optical Materials

The unique symmetry properties of chiral systems allow the emergence of coherent second harmonic generation in polymeric materials lacking polar order. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) treated with the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium (CTMA) was drop‐cast to spontaneously form films that are active for coherent second harmonic generation (SHG). SHG images acquired as a function of incident and exigent polarization are in good agreement with theoretical predictions assuming nonpolar D_∞ symmetry for the double‐stranded DNA chains. Doping the DNA films with crystal violet substantially increases the efficiency of SHG, but does not significantly alter the polarization‐dependence, suggesting that the SHG generated upon doping arises from the same chiral‐specific origin, presumably templated by the DNA. These results raise the possibility of new design strategies for organic nonlinear optical materials based on soft chiral polymers that do not require polar order.     

Electroactive Organic Building Blocks for the Chemical Design of Functional Porous Frameworks (MOFs and COFs) in Electronics

Electroactive organic molecules have received a lot of attention in the field of electronics because of their fascinating electronic properties, easy functionalization and potential low cost towards their implementation in electronic devices. In recent years, electroactive organic molecules have also emerged as promising building blocks for the design and construction of crystalline porous frameworks such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) for applications in electronics. Such porous materials present certain additional advantages such as, for example, an immense structural and functional versatility, combination of porosity with multiple electronic properties and the possibility of tuning their physical properties by post-synthetic modifications. In this Review, we summarize the main electroactive organic building blocks used in the past few years for the design and construction of functional porous materials (MOFs and COFs) for electronics with special emphasis on their electronic structure and function relationships. The different building blocks have been classified based on the electronic nature and main function of the resulting porous frameworks. The design and synthesis of novel electroactive organic molecules is encouraged towards the construction of functional porous frameworks exhibiting new functions and applications in electronics.

Theoretical studies of the band structure and optoelectronic properties of ZnOxS1−x

In the present article, we have revisited the electronic band gap nature of ZnO_xS_1?x (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) with the recently developed modified Becke and Johnson exchange potential and the calculated band gaps are found consistent with the experimental results. We expect that the band gap bowing parameter obtained in the present work will be close to the experimental one. As the optical properties of ZnO_xS_1?x (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) are very important, therefore different optical parameters like dielectric functions, refractive index and reflectivity are also calculated. The results are illustrated in terms of band structures, band gap energy as a function of oxygen composition, total and partial density of states. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Synthesis and characterization of new sulfone‐derivatized phenylenevinylene‐based conjugated copolymers with evolving energy levels and gaps

A new series of stable, processable, and chain end functionalizable sulfone‐derivatized phenylenevinylene‐based conjugated polymers (SFPVs) containing different donor type comonomers have been synthesized and characterized. The polymer main chains are consisted of a sulfone‐phenylene electron accepting unit coupled with an electron donating unit which is derived from one of the dialdehyde comonomers based on benzene, thiophene, and pyrrole (with or without alkoxy side chains). The optical energy gaps (E_g) of the new polymers (in solvent) are in a range of 1.9–2.3 eV, with the lowest energy gap obtained from the polymer containing pyrrole as the donor unit. By using a combination of strong donor unit (such as pyrrole) and a relatively weak but stable acceptor unit (sulfone‐substituted benzene), E_g of the conjugated polymers can be tailored to below 2 eV, while the vinylene bonds on the polymer main chain are still chemically stable to survive strong basic conditions as compared with the S,S‐dioxo‐thiophene‐based PTV polymers developed earlier for potential supra‐molecular block copolymer systems. The lowest energy gap P(Pyrrole‐SFPV) exhibited 10 times better photoelectric power conversion efficiency than P(TV‐SFPV). © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012
