Supramolecular photochemical systems consist of photochemically active components such as chromophores, electron donors or electron acceptors that are associated via non-covalent or covalent interactions and that interact in some functional way. Examples of interactions are singlet-singlet energy transfer, triplet-triplet energy transfer, photoinduced electron transfer, quantum coherence and spin-spin magnetic interactions. Supramolecular photochemical "devices" may have applications in areas such as solar energy conversion, molecular logic, computation and data storage, biomedicine, sensing, imaging, and displays. This short review illustrates supramolecular photochemistry with examples drawn from artificial photosynthesis, molecular logic, analog photochemical devices and models for avian magnetic orientation.
超分子光化学系统由光化学活性成分组成，如发色团、电子供体或电子受体，它们通过非共价或共价相互作用结合在一起，并以某种功能方式相互作用。相互作用的例子有单重态-单重态能量转移、三重态-三重态能量转移、光诱导电子转移、量子相干和自旋-自旋磁相互作用。超分子光化学“器件”可能在太阳能转换、分子逻辑、计算和数据存储、生物医学、传感、成像及显示等领域有应用。这篇简短的综述通过取自人工光合作用、分子逻辑、模拟光化学器件及鸟类磁定向模型的例子来说明超分子光化学。
