Amplified optical nonlinearity in a self-assembled double-strand conjugated porphyrin polymer ladder.

Addition of 4,4'-bipyridyl to a solution of a meso-meso butadiyne-linked conjugated zinc porphyrin polymer in chloroform results in self-assembly of a double-strand ladder complex. Excess ligand causes this duplex to dissociate into single strands. These binding processes were elucidated by nea...
