UV/Vis spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetric studies indicate that these triads show negligible intramolecular charge transfer interaction in the ground state. In contrast to that of the reference compound 36, their fluorescence intensities were reduced in the following sequences: 3≈4≈5≈6<1≈2, which is probably due to photoinduced electron transfer in triads 16. Two solid forms (yellow and green) of triads 15 were obtained, while only green form for triad 6 was obtained under the same conditions. Studies of the yellow and green forms with UV, XRD and DSC were performed. It was suggested that varying the attached side groups may regulate intermolecular charge transfer interactions in the solid state.展开更多

Dipolar interaction model is not appropriate for the azobenzene derivatives due to the small distance between two “D-π-A” chains. Energy transfer model is suggested for explanation of the absorption red shift. Two necessary conditions for energy transfer were verified. In addition, bi-exponential florescence-delay behavior of the dimer as well as Bella's quantum chemistry calculation shows evidence of energy transfer.展开更多

In this paper, considering the Rashba effect on the semiconductor region, we discuss the spin transfer torque in semiconductor/ferromagnetic structure and obtain the components of spin-current density for two models:(i) single electron and(ii) the distribution of electrons. We show that no matter whether the difference in Fermi surface between semiconductor and Fermi spheres for the up and down spins in ferromagnetic increases, the transmission probability decreases. The obtained results for the values used in this article illustrate that Rashba effect increases the difference in Fermi sphere between semiconductor and Fermi sphere for the up and down spins in ferromagnetic. The results also show that the Rashba effect, brings an additional contribution to the components of spin transfer torque, which does not exist in the absence of the Rashba interaction. Moreover, the Rashba term has also different effects on the transverse components of the spin torque transfer.展开更多

However, rare facile tuning method of sol-gel transition temperature restricted the wider application. Preceding study indicated that supramolecular interactions demonstrated a powerful means to control the structure and property of polymeric materials. Here we designed an N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) based thermo-sensitive copolymer with naphthyl (Np) on its side chain. Positive-charged side-chain ternary complex was formed with cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and methylviologen (MV2+) via CB[8]-enhanced intermolecular charge-transfer (CT) interaction. Introducing the ternary complex CB[8]/MV2+/Np on side-chain altered microstructure of macromolecular chains and led to a strong tendency for thermo gelation. Altering content of CB[8] and MV2+ changed content of the positive-charged side-chain ternary complex and varied gelation temperature. Therefore, introducing supramolecular interaction endowed the hydrogel with tunable gelation property.展开更多
