The synthesis and photophysical study of a perylene diimide (PDI) functionalised with platinum acetylide units of the type, trans{-C≡C-Pt(PBu3)2-C≡C-Ph} and comparison with a phenylacetylide substituted model compound are reported. The model compound demonstrates typical perylene absorption and photoluminescence spectra characteristic of singlet excited state formation and decay. The Pt-substitution, however, appears to induce spin-orbit coupling into the chromophore and giving rise to a triplet excited state which was confirmed by transient absorption measurements. This excited state is quenched by oxygen, leading to the formation of singlet oxygen in dichloromethane, recorded by time-resolved near-infrared luminescence measurements.

Spirals are a special class of excitable waves that have its significance in the understanding of cardiac arrests and neuronal transduction. In a theoretical model of the chemical Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction system, we explore the dynamics of the spatiotemporal patterns that emerge out of competing reaction and diffusion phenomena. By modifying the existing mathematical models of the reaction kinetics, we have been able to explore the explicit effect of hydrogen ion concentration in the system, so as to achieve various regimes of wave activity, from stable spirals to oscillation death.

Exploring electronic states in actinide compounds is a critical aspect of nuclear science. However, considering relativistic effects and electron correlation in theoretical calculations poses a complex challenge. To tackle this, we developed the CASPT2/RASPT2 program along with the DIRAC program, enabling calculations of electron correlation methods using multiconfigurational perturbation theory with various relativistic Hamiltonians.

Terahertz (THz) signals are crucial for ultrawideband communication and high-resolution radar, demanding miniaturized detectors that can simultaneously measure multiple parameters such as intensity, frequency, polarization, and phase. Traditional detectors fail to meet these needs. To address this, we introduce a plasmon polariton atomic cavity (PPAC) detector based on monolayer graphene, offering a multifunctional, monolithic, and miniaturized solution.

This study introduces a novel class of carbon-centered diradicals: a monosubstituted C-atom stabilized by a phosphine. The diradical Ph3P→C was photochemically generated from a diazophosphorus ylide precursor (Ph3PCN2) and characterized by EPR and isotope-sensitive ENDOR spectroscopy at low temperatures. Ph3P→C features an axial zero-field splitting parameter D = 0.
