ABSTRACTThe optical properties of substituted and unsubstituted oligothiophenes are analysed with respect to their supramolecular organization in the solid state. The spectra typical of the isolated molecules are obtained by reducing the intermolecular interactions by both lateral chain substitution and by inclusion in a host organic crystal. The photophysical properties of the weakly interacting oligothiophenes are strongly influenced by their backbone conformation and conformational mobility. Oligomers included in the channels of a guest crystal show fast torsional relaxation processes during the photoexcitation. Powders of β-substituted oligomers display optical properties dependent on the conformation of their particular chain packing arrangement.

A common theme in the implementation of quantum technologies involves addressing the seemingly contradictory needs for controllability and isolation from external effects. Undesirable effects of the environment must be minimized, while at the same time techniques and tools must be developed that enable interaction with the system in a controllable and well-defined manner. This chapter addresses several aspects of this theme with regard to a particularly promising candidate for developing applications in both metrology and quantum information, namely the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre in diamond. The chapter describes how the quantum states of NV centres can be manipulated, probed, and efficiently coupled with optical photons. It also discusses ways of tackling the challenges of controlling the optical properties of these emitters inside a complex solid state environment.
