What is an exciton and how does it move? Researchers in the Walter research lab at UNC Charlotte are exploring ways to understand this important process in new synthetic materials. Very exciting work!
Self-Assembly-Directed Exciton Diffusion in Solution-Processable Metalloporphyrin Thin Films
The study of excited-state energy diffusion has had an important impact in the development and optimization of organic electronics. For instance, optimizing excited-state energy migration in the photoactive layer in an organic solar cell device has been shown to yield efficient solar energy conversi...

Congrats to the Walter Research Group with their JACS paper about new, colorful fluorescent dyes with lots of applications!
Photostable Voltage-Sensitive Dyes Based on Simple, Solvatofluorochromic, Asymmetric Thiazolothiazoles
A family of asymmetric thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole (TTz) fluorescent dye sensors has been developed, and their photophysical sensing properties are reported. The π-conjugated, TTz-bridged compounds are synthesized via a single-step, double condensation/oxidation of dithiooxamide and two different aroma...
