Low-lying excited states for indeno[1,2-b]fluorene homo dimers with or without benzene spacers are calculated using the Density Matrix Renormalization group (DMRG) approach within Pariser-Parr-Pople (PPP) model Hamiltonian. DMRG calculations suggest that all the dimers studied here satisfy the essential energy conditions for SF. SF is a multiexciton generation process. As it is spin allowed, the process is very fast. By generating multiple exciton at a time SF underestimate SQ limit to enhance photo-conversion efficiency of single junction solar cells. Frontier orbital calculation through Density Functional Theory (DFT) depicts orbital localization of triplets on either side of the covalent spacers. Which supports the entangled triplet-triplet state $^1(TT)$. Here the process is intramolecular (iSF), which has many advantages over the intermolecular (xSF) process, as in intermolecular process the SF process is highly dependent on the crystal packing, defects, dislocations etc. The entangled $^1(TT)$ state for xSF is localized on both of the chromophores, thus the appropriate crystal packing is essential for xSF. However iSF does not depend on the crystal packing. Our DMRG calculation and TDDFT calculation are in well agreement with experimental results found in the literature. Thus indeno[1,2-b]fluorene homo dimers can be applicable in iSF application.

In this work we study singlet fission in tetracene para-dimers, covalently linked by a phenyl group. In contrast to most previous works, we account for the full quantum dynamics of the combined excitonic and vibrational system. For our simulations we
choose a numerically unbiased representation of the molecules wave function enabling us to compare with experiments, exhibiting good agreement. Having access to the full wave function allows us to study in detail the post-quench dynamics of the excitons. Here, one of our main findings is the identification of a time scale $t_0 approx 35 text{fs}$ dominated by coherent dynamics. It is within this time scale that the larger fraction of the singlet fission yield is generated. We also report on a reduced number of phononic modes that play a crucial role for the energy transfer between excitonic and vibrational system. Notably, the oscillation frequency of these modes coincides with the observed electronic coherence time $t_0$. We extended our investigations by also studying the dependency of the dynamics on the excitonic energy levels that, for instance, can be experimentally tuned by means of the solvent polarity. Here, our findings indicate that the singlet fission yield can be doubled while the electronic coherence time $t_0$ is mainly unaffected.
We employ Real-Time Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory to study hole oscillations within a B-DNA monomer (one base pair) or dimer (two base pairs). Placing the hole initially at any of the bases which make up a base pair, results in THz oscilla
tions, albeit of negligible amplitude. Placing the hole initially at any of the base pairs which make up a dimer is more interesting: For dimers made of identical monomers, we predict oscillations with frequencies in the range $f approx$ 20-80 THz, with a maximum transfer percentage close to 1. For dimers made of different monomers, $f approx$ 80-400 THz, but with very small or small maximum transfer percentage. We compare our results with those obtained recently via our Tight-Binding approaches and find that they are in good agreement.
We analyze the vibrational properties of diamondoid compounds via Raman spectroscopy. The compounds are interconnected with carbon-carbon single bonds that exhibit exceptionally large bond lengths up to 1.71 A. Attractive dispersion interactions caus
ed by well-aligned intramolecular H--H contact surfaces determine the overall structures of the diamondoid derivatives. The strong van-der-Waals interactions alter the vibrational properties of the compounds in comparison to pristine diamondoids. Supported by dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT) computations, we analyze and explain their experimental Raman spectra with respect to unfunctionalized diamondoids. We find a new set of dispersion-induced vibrational modes comprising characteristic CH/CH$_{2}$ vibrations with exceptionally high energies. Further, we find structure-induced dimer modes that are indicative of the size of the dimers.
Crystals are a state of matter characterised by periodic order. Yet crystalline materials can harbour disorder in many guises, such as non-repeating variations in composition, atom displacements, bonding arrangements, molecular orientations, conforma
tions, charge states, orbital occupancies, or magnetic structure. Disorder can sometimes be random, but more usually it is correlated. Frontier research into disordered crystals now seeks to control and exploit the unusual patterns that persist within these correlated disordered states in order to access functional responses inaccessible to conventional crystals. In this review we survey the core design principles at the disposal of materials chemists that allow targeted control over correlated disorder. We show how these principles---often informed by long-studied statistical mechanical models---can be applied across an unexpectedly broad range of materials, including organics, supramolecular assemblies, oxide ceramics, and metal--organic frameworks. We conclude with a forward-looking discussion of the exciting link to function in responsive media, thermoelectrics, topological phases, and information storage.
The observation of quantized anomalous Hall conductance in the forced ferromagnetic state of MnBi2Te4 thin flakes has attracted much attentions. However, strong magnetic field is needed to fully polarize the magnetic moments due to the large antiferr
omagnetic interlayer exchange coupling. Here, we reported the magnetic and electrical transport properties of the magnetic van der Waals MnBi2Te4(Bi2Te3)n (n=1,2) single crystals, in which the interlayer antiferromagnetic exchange coupling is greatly suppressed with the increase of the separation layers Bi2Te3. MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10 show weak antiferromagnetic transition at 12.3 and 10.5 K, respectively. The ferromagnetic hysteresis was observed at low temperature for both of the crystals, which is quite crucial for realizing the quantum anomalous Hall effect without external magnetic field. Our work indicates that MnBi2Te4(Bi2Te3)n (n=1,2) provide ideal platforms to investigate the rich topological phases with going to their 2D limits.
