Polymethine and metallophthalocyanine chromophore architectures: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Spectral crosstalk in high-resolution displays causes color inaccuracy and high rejection rates. Precise molecular engineering of anthraquinone and phthalocyanine structures enables targeted near-infrared absorption for superior color filter purity.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Polymethine and metallophthalocyanine chromophore architectures?

Low optical signal fidelity

(14)evidences

Organic chromophores in the near-infrared spectrum suffer from rapid photodegradation and chemical instability. Enhancing durability ensures consistent optical performance in harsh environments.

Insufficient photosensitivity in visible wavelengths

(4)evidences

Low contrast ratios and poor orientational order in liquid crystal displays. Improving dichroic ratios enhances optical switching efficiency and display readability.
