π-π interactions are integral to many areas of chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science. Here we use electronic structure theory to analyze how π-π interactions change as the π-systems are curved in model complexes based on coronene and corannulene dimers. Curvature

Coronene (C(24)H(12)) is a flat polyaromatic hydrocarbon consisting of seven peri-fused benzene rings and attracts lots of attention as a fragment of graphene. Using a hybrid method of quantum chemistry and statistical mechanics called RISM-SCF, which is an alternative to

The construction of coronenes using simple building blocks is a challenging task. In this work, triphenylene was used as a building block to construct functionalized coronenes, and their solid structures and optoelectronic properties were investigated. The single crystal structures showed
The structuring in organic electrically active thin films critically influences the performance of devices comprising them. Controlling film structure, however, remains challenging and generally requires stringent deposition conditions or modification of the substrate. To this end, we have developed post-deposition

"Ball and socket" motif: The contorted dibenzotetrathienocoronene (6-DBTTC) forms a complex with the C(70) fullerene PC(70) BM embedded in an amorphous phase of PC(70) BM. The materials are processable into organic solar cells in solution. The power conversion efficiency is
