All-optical manipulation of singlet exciton transport in individual supramolecular nanostructures by triplet gating

Abstract

We enforce an effective directional motion of photo-generated singlet excitons in supramolecular nanostructures using an optically written triplet gate that exploits singlet–triplet annihilation (STA).

Spatial Correlations Drive Long-Range Transport and Trapping of Excitons in Single H-Aggregates: Experiment and Theory

“…Along this H-type stack of cores we demonstrated long-range energy transport at room temperature for both compounds. 18 , 19 , 28 The preparation of spatially isolated, single nanofibers with lengths of several μm was reported previously 18 , 19 (see the Supporting Information , section Experimental Methods and Materials , for details on preparation and Figure S2 for widefield PL images).…”
