✦ Synopsis

Hole transfer process in ODNs conjugated with two organic molecules, pyrene (Py) and phenothiazine (Ptz) was investigated with the pulse radiolysis measurements. Monitoring the transient absorption of Py + and Ptz + , it was shown that the hole transfer rate was dependent on the distance and sequence between Py and Ptz.
