Anisotropy and Size Effects on the Optical Spectra of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Anisotropy and Size Effects on the Optical Spectra of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
The electronic and optical properties of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present a strong dependence on their size and geometry. We tackle this issue by analyzing the spectral features of two prototypical classes of PAHs, belonging to D6h and D2h symmetry point groups and related to coronene as multifunctional seed. While …
