| Research Abstract |
Investigation of an effective molecular excitation method and the analysis of the energy transfer dynamics in porphyrin molecular array were done aiming at the creation of the photonic logic gate with a single molecule that used the inter-molecular energy transfer as a signal carrier. The influence of the rotation of the linker molecule that led to the control of energy transfer rate in the porphyrin array was revealed. The porphyrin array molecule that has an anchor molecule with three legs to connect on a metallic surface was successfully synthesized. It was shown that it was succeeding in the vertical arrangement of a molecular array on a metallic substrate through the anchor, and the effective intermolecular energy transfer was possible even on a metallic surface.
