We have imaged over an extensive field the 3.29-μm emission from the Carina Nebula. This emission arises from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons which are excellent tracers of photodissociation regions. The results emphasis the two very different environments of the massive star clusters of the nebula, Trumpler 14 and 16.

We show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chromophores that are linked between two five-membered rings can access planarized structures with reduced optical gaps and redox potentials. Two aceanthrylene chromophores were connected into dimer model systems with the chromophores either projected outward (2,2’-biaceanthrylene) or inward (1,1’-biaceanthrylene) and the optical and electronic properties were compared. Only the planar 2,2’-biaceanthrylene system showed significant reductions of the optical gaps (1 eV) and redox potentials in relation to the aceanthrylene monomer.<br>
