연구실 소개
김우재 교수의 연구실은 광물리 및 분자 동역학 분야에서 활동하며, 주로 분자 내 전하 이동과 에너지 전달 메커니즘을 실시간으로 관찰하고자 합니다. 특히, 복합 분자의 구조적 변화와 전자 상태의 상호작용을 시간 해상도가 높은 스펙트로스코피 기법을 통해 규명하고 있으며, 이는 광발전, 양자정보 및 생체영상 기술 등 응용 분야로 이어지는 핵심 기초 연구입니다. 최근에는 솔벤트 조절을 통한 전하분리 제어 및 비대칭 전하이동 메커니즘의 규명에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다.

15As the selected prognostic factors can be easily obtained in clinical practice, the proposed model might prove useful in the prediction of breast cancer recurrence. The prediction model is freely available in the website (http://ami.ajou.ac.kr/bcr/).
The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) has shown promise as a functional vision endpoint for monitoring the changes in functional vision that accompany eye disease or its treatment. However, detecting CSF changes with precision and efficiency at both the individual and group levels is very challenging. By exploiting the Bayesian foundation of the quick CSF method (Lesmes, Lu, Baek, & Albright, 2010), we developed and evaluated metrics for detecting CSF changes at both the individual and group l
Excimer, a configurational mixing between Frenkel exciton and charge-transfer resonance states, is typically regarded as a trap state that hinders desired energy or charge-transfer processes in artificial molecular assemblies. However, in recent days, the excimer has received much attention as a functional intermediate in the excited-state dynamics such as singlet fission or charge-separation processes. In this work, we show that the relative contribution to charge-transfer resonance of the exci
The effect of the length of pendant side chains in centrosymmetric quadrupolar molecules on dynamics of their most perplexing photophysical phenomenon, i.e., symmetry-breaking intramolecular charge transfer, has been discovered. Unexpectedly, considerable influence of length of these pendant side chains in π-linkers arose as a structural factor enabling the control of the degree of fluorescence solvatochromism. The symmetry-breaking intramolecular charge-transfer dynamics has been described on q
Abstract Elucidating structural roles in photoinduced charge transfer is indispensable, as nuclear rearrangements are simultaneously usually involved in the dynamics. However, it is hard to evaluate whether the structural changes occur or not by using conventional time‐resolved electronic spectroscopy. Here, time‐resolved impulsive stimulated Raman spectroscopy is applied to record the evolution of vibrational snapshots during charge‐separation dynamics of donor–acceptor–donor‐type quadrupolar p
Covalent dimers, particularly pentacenes, are the dominant platform for developing a mechanistic understanding of intramolecular singlet fission (iSF). Numerous studies have demonstrated that a photoexcited singlet state in these structures can rapidly and efficiently undergo exciton multiplication to form a correlated pair of triplets within a single molecule, with potential applications from photovoltaics to quantum information science. One of the most significant barriers limiting such dimers
Red Bull is a carbonated beverage that initially gained wide popularity in the U.S. during the late nineties. Taking root amongst college campuses, it appeared throughout underground clubs and eventually entered mainstream pop-culture. The manufactures claim that drinking Red Bull enhances physical endurance, concentration and reaction speed (1,6). The main ingredients of Red Bull include sugar, taurine, glucuronolactone and caffeine. It is hypothesized that the combinatorial influences of these
A multitude of ultrafast photoinduced reactions in organic semiconductors are governed by the close interplay between nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom. From biological light-harvesting and photoprotection to organic solar cells, the critical electronic dynamics are often precisely synchronized with and driven by nuclear motions, in a breakdown of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Ultrafast time-domain Raman methods exploit impulsive excitation to generate nuclear wavepackets and track
Abstract The potential of hybrid perovskite/organic solar cells (HSCs) is increasingly recognized owing to their advantageous characteristics, including straightforward fabrication, broad‐spectrum photon absorption, and minimal open‐circuit voltage ( V OC ) loss. Nonetheless, a key bottleneck for efficiency improvement is the energy level mismatch at the perovskite/bulk‐heterojunction (BHJ) interface, leading to charge accumulation. In this study, it is demonstrated that introducing a uniform su
Linkers adjoining chromophores play an important role in modulating the structure of conjugated systems, which is bound up with their photophysical properties. However, to date, the focus of works dealing with linker effects was limited only to linear π-conjugated materials, and there have been no detailed studies on cyclic counterparts. Herein we report the linker effects on the dynamic planarization processes of π-conjugated macrocyclic oligothiophene 12-mers, where the different ratio between
, effectively converted triplet excitons into singlet excitons with an EUE of 64.3%, contributed by a direct hot exciton channel of 19.2% and a TTF-mediated hot exciton channel of 15.1%. Despite the low outcoupling efficiency, the non-doped device with 2MIQ-NPA achieved an excellent device performance with an external quantum efficiency of 7.0%.
Molecular dimers are generally regarded as essential tools for probing structure-property relationships in condensed-phase systems, revealing complexities where structural tuning is challenging. Traditionally treated as "static," with properties defined by their optimized geometry, we argue that dimers are "dynamic," exhibiting considerable conformational heterogeneity over time, which significantly influences interchromophore coupling strengths. Illustrating this, we explore the singlet fission
Experimentation is at the heart of scientific inquiry. In the behavioral and neural sciences, where only a limited number of observations can often be made, it is ideal to design an experiment that leads to the rapid accumulation of information about the phenomenon under study. Adaptive experimentation has the potential to accelerate scientific progress by maximizing inferential gain in such research settings. To date, most adaptive experiments have relied on myopic, one-step-ahead strategies in
Abstract In this study, we report on the dynamics of symmetry‐breaking charge transfer (SB‐CT) in a specific derivative of bianthracene, 9,9’,10,10’‐tetraphenyl‐2,2’‐bianthracene ( TPBA ). Unlike the conventional 9,9’‐bianthracene, TPBA exhibits a notably planar structure due to reduced steric hindrance between anthracene chromophores. This structural characteristic results in a pronounced short‐range charge transfer coupling, driven by substantial overlap integrals of hole and electron. This is
