This project aims to uncover the factors which control how molecules delocalize electrons in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. Electronic delocalization is essential for many applications of molecular materials, such as light-harvesting and energy storage, but it remains poorly understood. The expected outcomes of this project include new highly-conductive molecules, transferrable knowledge about aromaticity, and design principles for future organic materials. The expected benefits flow from the foundational nature of this research: pi-conjugated organic molecules have many potential uses, including: sensors (e.g. for environmental monitoring), solar cells, and OLED screens, and this project is expected to improve these technologies and industries.

该项目旨在揭示控制分子如何在1，2和3维中使电子离域的因素。电子离域对于分子材料的许多应用是必不可少的，例如光捕获和能量存储，但人们对它的了解仍然很少。该项目的预期成果包括新的高导电分子，关于芳香性的可转移知识，以及未来有机材料的设计原则。预期的好处来自这项研究的基础性质：π共轭有机分子有许多潜在的用途，包括：传感器（例如用于环境监测），太阳能电池和OLED屏幕，该项目预计将改善这些技术和行业。
