title: Controlling UV/vis absorption and Stokes shifts in highly fluorescent chromophores by molecular dynamics in targeted construction of dyads.
abstract: Perylenedicarboximides were interlinked in their free peri-position to form dyads where the UV/vis absorptivity was amplified by exciton effects and the strong fluorescence bathochromically shifted by molecular dynamics. Applications of this type of dye with such increased Stokes shifts were discussed.
