Thin Films of Tolane Aggregates for Faraday Rotation: Materials and Measurement

Thin Films of Tolane Aggregates for Faraday Rotation: Materials and Measurement

We present organic, diamagnetic materials based on structurally simple (hetero-)tolane derivatives. They form crystalline thin-film aggregates that are suitable for Faraday rotation (FR) spectroscopy. The resulting new materials are characterized appropriately by common spectroscopic (NMR, UV-Vis),...
