The structural and electronic properties of all-thiophene dendrimers and dendrons in solution have been evaluated using very different theoretical approaches based on quantum mechanical (QM) and hybrid QM/molecular mechanics (MM) methodologies: (i) calculations on minimum energy conformations using an implicit solvation model in combination with density functional theory (DFT) or time-dependent...

The nature and energies of the (arene)2Cr, (arene)2V and (arene)2Cr(+) (arene = η(6)-C6H6, η(6)-C6H5Me, η(6)-1,3-C6H4Me2, and η(6)-1,3,5-C6H3Me3) electronic excited states have been determined on the basis of the time-dependent density functional theory (TD DFT) approach and comparison with the gas-phase and condensed-phase absorption spectra. Both valence-shell and Rydberg electronic excitatio...

The density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) methodologies have been applied to explore on a series of star-shaped π-conjugated organoboron systems for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials. The compounds under investigation consist of benzene as π-bridge and different core units and triarylboron end groups. Their geometry structures, frontier molecular orbital (F...

Intermolecular interactions in cyclometalated Ru complex dye (FT89) dimers, carbazole organic dye (MK-45 and MK-111) dimers, FT89-MK-45 complexes, and FT89-MK-111 complexes were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) to elucidate the improvement mechanism of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) performance due to cosensitization with FT89 and MK dyes. All...

Six new Re(i) complexes of the general formula [ReCl(CO)3(4'-R-terpy-κ(2)N)] with 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-based ligands have been synthesized and characterized by IR, NMR ((1)H and (13)C), UV-Vis spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray analysis. The luminescent properties of [ReCl(CO)3(4'-R-terpy-κ(2)N)] were studied in solution and solid state, at 298 and 77 K, respectively. To obtain detailed i...

A new family consisting of three luminescent neutral Ir(III) complexes with the unprecedented [Ir(C^N^C)(N^N)Cl] architecture, where C^N^C is a bis(six-membered) chelating tridentate tripod ligand derived from 2-benzhydrylpyridine (bnpy) and N^N is 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dtBubpy), is reported. X-ray crystallography reveals an unexpected and unusual double C-H bond activation of the...

Coumarin-based dyes have been successfully used in dye-sensitized solar cells, leading to photovoltaic conversion efficiencies of up to about 8%. Given the need to better understand the behavior of the dye adsorbed on the TiO₂ nanoparticle, we report results of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) studies of several coumarin-based dyes, as well as complex systems cons...
