1 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineAbsorption-detected magnetic-resonance studies of photoexcitations in conjugated-polymer/C60 compositesPhotoexcitations in poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy -p-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) and composites of MEH-PPV and C60 (MEH-PPV/C60) were studied by photoinduced absorption and absorptiondetected magnetic-resonance spectroscopies. We report direct evidence that the prominent triplet photoexci...Photoexcitations; Conjugated-polymer/C60 composites; Triplet photoexcitations1996-02
2 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineExciton dynamics in single-walled nanotubes: transient photoinduced dichroism and polarized emissionUltrafast relaxation of photoexcitations in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (S-NTs) were investigated using polarized pump-probe photomodulation (with 150 fs time resolution) and cw polarized photoluminescence (PL). Both annealed and unannealed thin NT films and D2O solutions of isola...Exciton dynamics; Single-walled carbon nanotubes; SWNT; Transient photoinduced dichroism; Polarized emission; Ultrafast relaxation; Photoexcitations2005-03
3 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineInfrared ultrafast optical probes of photoexcitations in ∏-conjugated organic semiconductorsWe measured the ultrafast dynamics of photoexcitations in a variety of semiconductor ∏-conjugated polymer films and solutions, in the spectral range from 0.13 eV to 1.05 eV and time domain from 100 fs to 800 ps. The measurements were made in the low signal regime, where the relative changes in tra...Infrared ultrafast optical probes; Photoexcitations; Ultrafast dynamics; MEH-PPV2005
4 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineMagneto-optical studies of photoexcitations in C61We have used a variety of cw optical and optically detected magnetic-resonance techniques to characterize long-lived photoexeitations in methanofullerene (C6 1) as a dispersion in polystyrene glass, at temperatures below 10 K. We identify triplet excitons with zero-field-splitting (ZFS) parameters...Photoexcitations; C61; Methanofullerene1993-12
5 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineNonlinear optical spectroscopy of excited states in polyfluoreneWe used a variety of nonlinear optical (NLO) spectroscopies to study the singlet excited-state order and primary photoexcitations in polyfluorene, an important blue-emitting ∏-conjugated polymer. The polarized NLO spectroscopies include ultrafast pump-probe photomodulation in a broad spectral rang...pi-conjugated polymers; Polyfluorene; Photoexcitations2007-03
6 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineOptical probes of photoexcitations in fullerene thin films from femtoseconds to millisecondsWe have studied photoexcitations in various fiillerene thin films using transient photomodulation and photoluminescence from 100 fs to 50 ms and absorption-detected magnetic resonance (ADMR). We show that singlet Frenkel type excitons are the primary photoexcitations; their recombination kinetics in...Photoexcitations; Femtosecond; Transient photomodulation; Transient photoluminescence; Frenkel type excitons; Triplet excitons1995
7 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineOptical probes of ∏-conjugated polymer blends with strong acceptor moleculesWe used a variety of optical probes to study the primary and long-lived photoexcitations in blends of polyphenylene-vinylene derivative poly(2-methoxy-5(2'-ethyl)hexoxy-phenylenevinylene) (MEH-PPV) with various concentrations of a strong electron-acceptor molecule 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenone (TNF...pi-conjugated polymers; pi-conjugated polymer blends; Acceptor molecules; Optical probes; Photoexcitations; MEH-PPV; Electron acceptors; Organic solar cells2009-05
8 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotoexcitations in disubstituted acetylene polymersWe have used a variety of optical techniques to study the photoexcitations dynamics in several disubstituted acetylene polymer thin films. We found that although these polymers have a degenerate ground state, as determined by iodine doping and C6Q photodoping, they show strong photoluminescence (PL)...Photoexcitations; Disubstituted acetylene polymers; Trans-Polyacetylene; Electron-electron interactions1997
9 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotoexcitations in polythiophene at high pressureWe report optical-absorption, photoluminescence (PL), and picosecond photoinduced absorption (PA) decay in films of poly-3-hexyl-thiophene at pressures up to 80 kbar. The spectral bands redshift nonlinearly with pressure and the PL intensity decreases markedly. Thermochromic transitions are complete...Photoexcitations1993-01
10 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotophysics of pristine and C60-doped disubstituted polyacetyleneUsing a variety of steady-state spectroscopies we studied the long-lived photoexcitations and electronic excited states of poly disubstituted acetylene (PDPA-nBu), the backbone structure of which is a disubstituted trans-polyacetylene, as well as PDPA-nBu/C60 blends. The cw spectroscopies include a...Photophysics; Pristine disubstituted polyacetylene; C60-doped disubstituted polyacetylene; pi-conjugated polymers; Photoexcitations; Electronic excited states2002-08
