A survey of methods to study zinc porphyrin aggregates in various media

Metalloporphyrin aggregation is critical for triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) to occur. In order to maximize the efficiency of TTA, to use as a mechanism of photon upconversion in dye-sensitized solar cells, it is important to understand the phenomenon of absorber aggregation. The aggregation of Z...
