CRC TRR 61 B09 - Femtosecond dynamics in nanostructured organic complexes

Basic data for this project

Type of project: Subproject in DFG-joint project hosted at University of Münster

Duration at the University of Münster: 01/07/2012 - 30/06/2017 | 2nd Funding period

Description

The central goal of this project is the understanding of the femtosecond dynamics of charge and energy transfer processes in organized organic complexes on SiC surfaces. 1D and 2D nanostructured systems composed of electron donor and acceptor molecules, and bound with different linkers to the substrate, will be studied. Unoccupied electronic states are studied by Inverse Photoemission (IPE) and Two-Photon Photoemission (2PPE). Spatially resolved fluorescence lifetimes as well as time-resolved 2PPE yield information about the dynamics of electron transfer processes. Imaging of the nanostructured systems is achieved by Photoemission Electron Microscopy (PEEM) which will also be used to study surfaces from other projects within the TRR.
