Organic Framework

Using the “crystal sponge” approach, weak organic electron donor molecules were impregnated and evenly distributed in a crystal of a metal–organic framework (MOF), with the self-assembly of the donor–acceptor pairs with electron acceptor ligands. The nanopores of the MOF confined them and induced a charge transfer phenomenon, which would not occur between donor and acceptor molecules in a bulk scale.

Development of the interplay between monomer sequence and supramolecular chemistry is critical if chemistry is to recapitulate the properties of proteins and nucleic acids in the synthetic world. We have created sequenced trimers of aromatic donor/acceptor units which participate in charge-transfer interactions, linked by phosphodiesters. Each sequence displays its own characteristic self-assembly, and moreover complementary sequences interact with each other to produce new nanostructures and emergent thermochromism. This finding paves the way towards new functional nanomaterials which make bio-analogous use of sequence to tune structure.

Abstract Self-assembly of organic molecules is a promising method for generating multilayer systems for fabrication of functional devices. In particular, fullerene (C60) and porphyrin molecules offer a variety of binding modes, including π-π interactions, dipole electrostatic attraction, and hydrogen bonding, to tailor the charge separation and charge recombination limiting device performance. Here, we investigate multilayer systems obtained by the sequential physical vapor deposition of C60 and tetraphenylporphyrin (H2TPP) layers, focusing on the effect of the interfaces on the charge transfer processes. Absorbance spectra indicate noncovalent-like π-stacking, with the increment of fullerene interfaces shifting the porphyrin Soret band toward the blue. Similarly, surface photovoltage measurements in the multilayer systems show that as the number of interfaces increases, so does the photogeneration of charge. Charge separation follows carrier generation given that the recombination time, associated to trap states, decreases. This behavior indicates that the Donor-Acceptor nature of the fullerene-porphyrin bilayer system is conserved, and even enhanced, in the multilayer film, and that the number of interfaces aid to the formation of selective paths for charge carrier collection, demonstrating its potential in optoelectronic devices.

Here, using solution based self-assembly, we contrast a three-dimensional co-crystal, where a [1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (BTBT) based donor and a tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) based acceptor leads to a mixed stacking sequence with pronounced intermolecular hybridization, with the donor–acceptor bilayer.
