Abstract

The electronic structures and absorption spectra of one- and two-dimensional charge transfer (CT) molecules based on para-nitroaniline (pNA) and 1,3-diamino-4,6-dinitro- benzene (DADB) have been studied theoretically via semi-empirical and ab initio methods. It is found that the behaviors of optical absorption are strongly influenced by the dimension of CT. Different from the well-known one-dimensional CT molecule of pNA, which shows one intense absorption related to the π → π * CT transition, two-dimensional CT molecule of DADB exhibits more absorption peaks associated with various low-lying CT transitions in near ultraviolet range. In addition, the relative orientations of transition dipole moment and ground state dipole moment in one- and two-dimensional charge transfer molecules were also discussed.
