Highly Efficient Mesoscopic Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Based on Donor-Acceptor-Substituted Porphyrins

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Takeru Bessho

To dye for: A porphyrin chromophore, which is integrated into a donor-acceptor dye as a π-conjugated bridge (see picture), exhibits an unprecedented efficiency of 11 □ % when used as a photosensitizer in a double-layer TiO2 film. A greatly enhanced photovo ...

Spectroscopy of Protonated Peptides Assisted by Infrared Multiple Photon Excitation

Thomas Rizzo, Ulrich Lorenz, Oleg Boyarkine, Monia Guidi, Georgios Papadopoulos

We report here a new technique for spectroscopic studies of protonated, gas- phase biomolecules and demonstrate its utility by measuring highly-resolved electronic and infrared spectra of peptides of up to 17 amino acids. After UV excitation of an aromatic ...

Functional electric field changes in photoactivated proteins revealed by ultrafast Stark spectroscopy of the Trp residues

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Erwin Portuondo Campa, Stefan Haacke

Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin (WT bR) and 2 tryptophan mutants (W86F and W182F) is performed with visible light excitation (pump) and UV probe. The aim is to investigate the photoinduced change in the charge dis ...

Modulating the Near-Infrared Luminescence of Neodymium and Ytterbium Complexes with Tridentate Ligands Based on Benzoxazole-Substituted 8-Hydroxyquinolines

Rosario Scopelliti, Jean-Claude Bünzli, Frédéric Gumy

An improved synthesis of 2-(2′-benzothiazole)- and 2-(2′-benzoxazole)-8-hydroxyquinoline ligands that combine a tridentate N,N,O-chelating unit for metal binding and extended chromophore for light harvesting is developed. The 2-(2′-benzoxazole)-8-hydroxyqu ...

Solvent effects on the ultrafast dynamics of the retinal chromophore of bacteriorhodopsin

Goran Zgrablic

Photo-induced excited-state reactions stand in the center of function of the photosensitive biological systems. These reactions can be accompanied by structural changes of the chromophore (for example isomerization) which are influenced by the nearest envi ...

Clinical fluorescence spectroscopy and imaging for the detection of early carcinoma by autofluorescence bronchoscopy and the study of the protoporphyrin IX pharmacokinetics in the endometrium

Tanja Gabrecht

The aim of this thesis is to optimise and gain fundamental information on two applications of photomedicine using fluorescence imaging and spectrofluorometry: (1) the detection of early bronchial cancer by autofluorescence imaging and (2) the endometrial a ...
