1. Ground and Excited State Aromaticity : Design Tools for π-Conjugated Functional Molecules and Materials
Sammanfattning : The main focus of this thesis is on the aromaticity of the ground state and electronically excited states of π-conjugated molecules and polymers, as well as how aromaticity is connected to their properties.The electronic structures of polybenzenoid hydrocarbons (PBHs) were explored through density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the π-component of the electron localization function (ELFπ).

2. Excited State Aromaticity and Antiaromaticity : Fundamental Studies and Applications
Sammanfattning : The central theme of this thesis is the ability to tune various molecular properties by controlling and utilizing aromaticity and antiaromaticity in the lowest electronically excited states. This investigation is based on qualitative theory, quantum chemical (QC) calculations and experimental work. LÄS MER
3. Tuning of the Excited State Properties of Ruthenium(II)-Polypyridyl Complexes
Sammanfattning : Processes where a molecule absorbs visible light and then converts the solar energy into chemical energy are important in many biological systems, such as photosynthesis and also in many technical applications e.g. photovoltaics. LÄS MER
4. Transient State Fluorescence Microscopy - method development and biological applications : Exploiting the dark states of fluorophores to measure oxygen concentrations, redox state, Förster resonance energy transfer and membrane viscosity
Sammanfattning : Due to their long lifetime, triplet, redox and other transient states of fluorophores are highly sensitive to the micro-environment. Imaging their spatial distribution in biological samples can therefore help answer interesting questions about the metabolism, molecular interactions and dynamics in living cells. LÄS MER
5. Excited state dynamics in the strong coupling regime
Sammanfattning : Strong exciton-photon coupling exhibits the possibility to modify photophysical and photochemical properties of organic molecules without changing their structure. This is due to the formation of hybrid light-matter states, called polaritons, which are created when the strong coupling regime is achieved. LÄS MER
