Two dendrimers were designed and synthesized that contain a 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenoid core and incorporate 9 and 21 viologen (4,4'-bipyridinium) units in their branches in addition to hydrophilic (aryloxy) terminal groups. For comparison purposes, model compounds containing one and two viologen units were also st…

Formation of Mn 2+ -doped ZnSe quantum dots (Mn:ZnSe d-dots) with both branched and nearly spherical shapes has been studied. Structure analysis indicates that the Mn 2+ dopants were localized in the core of a branched nanocrystal. The growth of branched d-dots, rather than spherical ones, was achieved by simply varyi…

We fabricated a series of glasses with the composition 94.7-χGeO2-5Al2O3-0.3Bi2O3-χPbO (χ=0-24mol.%). Characteristic absorption bands of bismuth centered at 500, 700, 800, and 1000 nm were observed. Adding PbO was found to decrease the strength of bismuth absorption. The addition of 3%-4% PbO resulted in a 50% increas…

Colored carbocations beyond the visible! A porphyrin dimer carbocation is synthesized with effective delocalization over 18 conjugated bonds. Placing a carbocation at the center of a conjugated porphyrin dimer shifts its absorption into the infrared and results in strong ultrafast nonlinear optical behavior.
