Photophysics of Supramolecular Architectures

Description

This reference provides collective information about the physical andphotophysical changes of supramolecules after encapsulation. It coversluminescent systems involving a range of host molecules such as calixarenes, cyclodextrin, resorcinanene-crowns, pillararenes, cucurbituril, andmetallacycles. Chapters also discuss the effect of the macrocyclic environment onthe properties of functionalized molecules, including the variations in foldingand unfolding patterns. Each chapter is supplemented with detailed references,making this an ideal resource for scholars interested in supramolecularphotophysics.
