Description:: This dissertation investigates the use of organic and semiconductor nanomaterials as chromophores in solar fuels production and energy transfer-mediated [2+2] cycloadditions. A series of novel N-annulated perylene chromophore amphiphiles was synthesized via a modular synthesis. These perylene amphiphiles were found to self-assemble in aqueous solution, forming extended ribbon-like nanostructures that...

Description:: Molecular self-assembly is a process in which molecules spontaneously form ordered aggregates, the process of which is important in the natural world, considering those ordered systems and complex architectures contained in a living cell. The goal of chemists is to design simple molecules or chemical systems that can undergo molecular...

Description:: High relaxivity contrast agents are of great importance in the advancement of magnetic resonance imaging diagnostics for use in biomaterials. Biomaterials that are implanted into the body, with the goal of repairing or regenerating lost or damaged tissue, need to be tracked noninvasively, over time. I have completed work using...
