Abstract

The molecular self-assembly, growth and nonlinear thermo-optical properties of three synthetic aromatic–aliphatic hybrid nitropeptides have been investigated. The X-ray crystallography of nitropeptide 2 containing a glutamic acid moiety shows that the peptide adopts a dimeric structure using intermolecular hydrogen bonding as well as face to face π–π stacking interactions. Moreover, nitropeptide 2 exhibits nonlocal nonlinear optical properties. When a Gaussian laser beam passes through nitropeptide 2, the peptide shows several concentric rings due to spatial self-phase modulation (SSPM). However, the homologous peptide 1 containing an aspartic acid moiety and peptide 3 containing an achiral α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) moiety adopt sheet-like structures and have no self-phase modulation effect. The report describes the thermo-optical properties consistent with assumption and calculation and is promising for their applications in nonlinear optical modulation devices.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
