For quasi-one-dimensional graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), adjusting its length, width, doping and heteroatom adsorption showed novel electronic properties. He has a very wide range of potential applications in the field of microelectronics.
Defects, such as twisting, in fused aromatic hydrocarbons disrupt the plane of the π orbital. The twisted structure induces an electric field in the system and affects the spectra. In this work, theoretical studies show that the intramolecular electric field within a distinctly twisted structure is larger than that of other molecules. In addition, the spectral study shows that the degree of charge transfer and the magnetic transition dipole in the electrostatic potential extremum region of the molecular electric field were significantly improved, which affected the optical absorption and chiral optical behavior of the molecule. The discovery of this theoretical regulation law will provide a solid foundation for the electric-field-induced regulation of optical properties and will promote the precise design and synthesis of optoelectronic molecules with inner electric fields.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
