The enhancement of light-matter coupling when light is confined to wavelength scale volumes is useful both for studying small sample volumes and increasing the overall sensing ability. At these length scales, nonradiative interactions are of key interest to which...

Photoelectric covalent organic frameworks: converting open lattices into ordered donor-acceptor heterojunctions.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Chen L, Furukawa K, Gao J, Nagai A, Nakamura T, Dong Y, Jiang D.

Ordered one-dimensional open channels represent the typical porous structure of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Here we report a general synthetic strategy for converting these open lattice structures into ordered donor-acceptor heterojunctions. A three-component topological design scheme was explored...
