Summary: It is discovered that 2'-aminochalcones with a strong push-pull character exhibit dual emission due to the Excited State Intramolecular Proton Transfer (ESIPT) between ketoenamine and enol-imine tautomers. The strength of hydrogen bonds is correlated with the tautomerization energy gap, depending on the electron donating or electron withdrawing group on the amine.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the fluorescence lifetime characteristics of newly developed NIR-emitting ESIPT dyes in a polar aprotic solvent. The results showed a two-component exponential decay in approximately 2-4 ns, which could be attributed to the excited keto tautomers. The probe structures significantly influenced both fluorescence lifetimes and fractional contributions of each component.

Summary: In this study, a bis-benzimidazole derivative (BBM) molecule consisting of two 2-(2 '-hydroxyphenyl) benzimidazole (HBI) halves was synthesized and used as a ratiometric fluorescence sensor for sensitive detection of Cu2+ based on enol-keto excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The primary photodynamics of the BBM molecule were investigated using femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy, time-resolved electronic spectroscopies, and quantum chemical calculations. The results showed that ESIPT occurred only in one of the HBI halves with a time constant of 300 fs, followed by rotation of the dihedral angle between the two HBI halves and generation of a planarized BBM-keto* isomer in 3 ps, resulting in a dynamic redshift of BBM-keto* emission.

Summary: The researchers have developed an automatic and efficient scheme for accurately constructing the bases for excitonic models, enabling black-box excited state structure calculations for large molecular systems. They introduced a new framework called block interaction product state (BIPS), where the bases are expressed as direct products of local states for each chromophore. Test calculations demonstrated that the BIPS framework accurately describes not only the excitation energies but also the properties of the low-lying excited states at a low computational cost.

Summary: Inspired by the regulatory luminescence properties of HBT derivatives, this work focuses on investigating the photoinduced excitation behavior of a novel di-proton-transfer type HBT derivative 1-BBTND. The intramolecular double hydrogen bonding interaction and excited state intramolecular double proton transfer (ESDPT) behavior of 1-BBTND are explored in different solvent environments. By constructing potential energy surfaces (PESs) in S0 and S1 states, a new solvent-polarity-dependent stepwise ESDPT mechanism for 1-BBTND fluorophore is proposed.

Summary: In this study, a charge-transfer complex was formed between dpTPA and APDC that exhibited a wide range of charge-transfer absorption in the near-infrared region. The rate of charge transfer as regulated by an external electric field was quantitatively analyzed using first-principles quantum mechanics. The results show that the rates of charge separation and charge recombination were affected by the external electric field and need to be considered in simulating electron transfer in organic semiconductors.

Summary: Aptamers have high specificity and affinity in targeting cell surface receptors, making them promising for targeted drug delivery. Understanding the receptor-mediated internalization process of aptameric conjugates can aid in designing new targeted drugs. In this study, human transferrin receptor-targeted DNA aptamer-fluorophore conjugates were used to study the internalization, intracellular transport, and environmental pH of aptameric conjugates. The results showed that the aptameric conjugates had lower recycling ratios and dissociated from receptors, suggesting they could efficiently release loaded drugs and serve as a versatile tool for specific and effective delivery of therapeutic payloads.

Summary: The L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) plays important roles in the development and plasticity of the nervous system as well as in tumor formation, progression, and metastasis. DNA aptamers yly20 and yly21, optimized through sequence mutation and extension, exhibit much stronger binding affinity to L1CAM at both room temperature and 37 degrees C. These aptamers adopt a hairpin structure containing two loops and two stems, with key nucleotides for binding mainly located in loop I and its adjacent area. This study provides insights into the molecular mechanism of the interaction between yly-series aptamers and L1CAM, and has implications for drug development and detection probe design against L1CAM.

Summary: We investigate the interface properties between WSi2N4 and Mo2B, O-modified Mo2B, and OH-modified Mo2B nanosheets. We find that WSi2N4 and Mo2B form n-type Schottky contacts, while functionalizing Mo2B with O and OH leads to the formation of both n-type and p-type ohmic contacts with WSi2N4. Additionally, we demonstrate the emergence of quasi-ohmic contact with ultralow lateral Schottky barrier and zero vertical interfacial tunneling barriers in Mo2B(OH)2-contacted WSi2N4.

Summary: When rare-earth ions are embedded in a ferroelectric material, their photoluminescence can serve as an all-optical probe for temperature, electric field, and mechanical stimulus. However, the impact of ferroelectric phase transitions on photoluminescence is not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate changes in the photoluminescence of green emission bands during critical ferroelectric transitions in an Er-doped BaTiO3 material. We also find that the intensity ratio and wavelength position difference of sub-peaks provide information on the phase transitions.
