研究领域

Inorganic Chemistry

Since the end of 2002, a significant focus of our "basic" research program involves the investigation of supra-nanosecond and ultrafast photophysical processes in platinum(II) polyimine chromophores bearing a variety of carbon-based ligands. These strongly-coupled metal-organic systems are of fundamental interest and may serve in a variety of applications including optical power limiting, solar energy conversion, and photocatalysis. In 2005 we started to explore the solid-state vapochromism (color changes in response to VOCs) inherent in some of the platinum(II) MLCT complexes described above. We recently illustrated the concept of low power photon upconversion using simple photochemical concepts, highlighted as "News of the Week" in C&EN (August 8, 2005). This year we also established a new program in solar energy conversion, focusing largely on the design and synthesis of new Ru(II) inorganic chromophores for dye sensitized solar cells.
