Impact of solvation on the photoisomerisation dynamics of a photon-only rotary molecular motor

Abstract The optimization of the quantum efficiency of single-molecule light-driven rotary motors typically relies on chemical modifications. While, in isolated conditions, computational methods have been frequently used to design more efficient motors, the role played by the solvent environment has...
