Exceptional Redox and Photophysical Properties of a Triply Fused Diporphyrin-C60 Conjugate: Novel Scaffolds for Multicharge Storage in Molecular Scale Electronics
Up to fifteen electrons are reversibly accommodated in a triply fused porphyrin dimer conjugated to two [60]fullerene moieties. Its photophysical properties differ completely from those of the many known porphyrin-fullerene dyads: Photo-excitation of the
