Synthesis, characterization, and optical properties of novel 1,3-dithiole donor-based chromophores†‡
Abstract
In this paper we describe the synthesis and the optical properties of new push–pull systems with a 1,3-dithiole moiety as a donor, a thiophene ring in the spacer group and two strong acceptors. The role of the thiophene ring as an auxiliary donor was also investigated. All
