Title: Functionalized Nanoparticles and Surfaces for Controlled Chemical Catalysis and Effective Light Harvesting

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1054069· OSTI ID:1054069

We have prepared a range of such arrays as key components for biotechnology and photonic applications. These involve self-assembled arrays of increasing complexity with three-dimensionally disposed multilayer interactions. These arrays also include dendrimers as the distinguishing structural building blocks. These photoactive integrated systems have a regular, highly-branched, three-dimensional architecture. Structural modifications of these units include variation of the core, bridging layers, and terminal groups. These modifications result in a large array of dendritic molecules with potential applications for light harvesting.
