Description:
Electronic energy transfer (EET) between chromophores is of fundamental importance for many natural processes and technical applications. However, common models fall short in fully describing the process, especially in bichromophoric compounds with a donor and acceptor connected by a linker, at very short distances in near perpendicular geometries. A fundamental problem is the role played by the linker, in particular its size, the angle between chromophores it imposes, and its ability to prevent rotations. This thesis reports a novel strategy to prepare bichromophores containing adamantane ...
