Abstract

Chemical oxidation of a double-twisted nanographene led to quantitative generation of corresponding dicationic species, which exhibited an intense absorption band tailing to 1500 nm wherein two orthogonally arranged π-skeletons contributed to transitions and a high dissymmetry factor of -0.0209 was recorded at 1443 nm in the NIR-II region.
