Abstract

The application of low-flux sunlight begins with the synthesis of effective antenna systems. This requires the development of dye integrates with optimized dye orientation for effective energy transfer. We here report a series of peptide-linked porphyrin arrays, denoted by Boc−(PorZn, S) n− OBut (n= 2, 4, and 8), that change their dye orientation to increase fluorescence responsively to additive reagents. The B-band absorption (AB) regions of the ...
