- In this work we report the coating of a biological template with a polar, but uncharged, luminescent conjugated polymer, soluble in organic solvents but not in water, to produce a nanowire. Amyloid fibrils from bovine insulin were decorated with an alternating polyfluorene derivative. Decorated fibrils were partially aligned on hydrophobic surfaces as separate and bundled fibrils, by means of molecular combing. The single molecule spectroscopy technique utilizing excitation by rotating linearly polarized light and fluorescence detection through a rotating polarizer showed a high degree of anisotropy of the polymer chains on the individual fibrils. The high degree of polarization indicated highly oriented polymer chains with the preferential orientation of the polymer backbone along the fibrils. The anisotropy ratios are comparable with those of well-oriented polymer chains in films. © The Royal Society of Chemistry.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy is used for investigation of photoinduced charge carrier dynamics in blends of a polyfluorene copolymer (poly[2,7-(9,9-dioctyl-fluorene)-alt-5,5-(4',7'-di-2-thienyl- 2',1',3-benzo-thiadiazole)]) and an electron acceptor ([6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester). The transient far-infrared response appears instantaneously after photoexcitation. We show that the transient conductivity spectrum is dominated by two major contributions: response of separated charge carriers and response of coupled polaron pairs. © 2008 American Chemical Society.

- Time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy is used to investigate photoinduced dynamics of charge carriers in a polymer heterojunction. We directly observe instantaneous generation of highly mobile charge carriers followed by a rapid drop in their mobility. (C) 2008 Optical Society of America
