Abstract
Chlorosomes are efficient light-harvesting antennas containing up to hundreds of thousands of bacteriochlorophyll molecules. With massively parallel computer hardware, we use a nonperturbative stochastic Schrödinger equation, while including an atomistically derived spectral density, to study excitonic energy transfer in a realistically sized chlorosome model. We find that fast short-range delocalization leads to robust long-range transfer due to the antennae's concentric-roll structure. Additionally, we discover anomalous behavior arising from different initial conditions, and outline general considerations for simulating excitonic systems on the nanometer to micrometer scale.

Abstract
Photonic circuits are expected to greatly contribute to the next generation of integrated chips, as electronic integrated circuits become confronted with bottlenecks such as heat generation and bandwidth limitations. One of the main challenges for the state-of-the-art photonic circuits lies in the development of optical materials with high nonlinear optical (NLO) susceptibilities, in particular in the wavelength and subwavelength dimensions which are compatible with on-chip technologies. In this review, the varied approaches to micro-/nanosized NLO materials based on building blocks of bio- and biomimetic molecules, as well as synthetic D-π-A chromophores, have been categorized as supramolecular self-assemblies, molecular scaffolds, and external force directed assemblies. Such molecular and supramolecular NLO materials have intrinsic advantages, such as structural diversities, high NLO susceptibilities, and clear structure-property relationships. These "bottom-up" fabrication approaches are proposed to be combined with the "top-down" techniques such as lithography, etc., to generate multifunctionality by coupling light and matter on the (sub)wavelength scale.

Abstract
Self-assembly from flexible worm-like threads via bundles of rigid fibers to nanosheets and nanotubes was achieved by covalent conjugation of perylene monoimide (PMI) chromophores with oligoprolines of increasing length. Whereas the chromophoric π-system and the peptidic building block do not self-aggregate, the covalent conjugates furnish well-ordered supramolecular structures with a common wall/fiber thickness. Their morphology is controlled by the number of repeat units and can be tuned by seemingly subtle structural modifications.

Abstract
Photonic DNA nanostructures are typically prepared by the assembly of multiple sequences of long DNA strands that are conjugated covalently to various dye molecules. Herein we introduce a noncovalent method for the construction of porphyrin-containing DNA nanowires and their networks that uses the programmed assembly of a single, very short, oligodeoxyribonucleotide sequence. Specifically, our strategy exploits a number of supramolecular binding modalities (including DNA base-pairing, metal-ion coordination, and β-cyclodextrin-adamantane derived host-guest interactions) for simultaneous nanowire assembly and porphyrin incorporation. Furthermore, we also show that the resultant DNA-porphyrin assembly can be further functionalized with a complementary "off-the-shelf" DNA binding dye resulting in photonic structures with broadband absorption and energy transfer capabilities.

Abstract
The scope of this Perspective is to highlight the potential of nanoscale self-ordering/self-assembling nanocarbons-fullerenes, single-wall carbon nanotubes, and graphene-en route toward novel charge transfer hybrids that unify several functions such as light harvesting, charge separation, and, eventually, catalysis. All of the given examples are fully characterized by a broad range of spectroscopic as well as microscopic techniques and, as such, document the success in tuning the electronic structure of functional nanocarbons by means of charge transfer/doping interactions.

Abstract
The use of DNA in nanobiotechnology has advanced to a stage at which almost any two or three dimensional architecture can be designed with high precision. The choice of the DNA sequences is essential for successful self-assembly, and opens new ways of making nanosized monomolecular assemblies with predictable structure and size. The inclusion of designer nucleoside analogues further adds functionality with addressable groups, which have an influence on the function of the DNA nano-objects. This article highlights the recent achievements in this emerging field and gives an outlook on future perspectives and applications.

Abstract
We describe the synthesis of terpyridine modified DNA strands which selectively form DNA nanotubes through orthogonal hydrogen bonding and metal complexation interactions. The short DNA strands are designed to self-assemble into long duplexes through a sticky-end approach. Addition of weakly binding metals such as Zn(II) and Ni(II) induces the formation of tubular arrays consisting of DNA bundles which are 50-200 nm wide and 2-50 nm high. TEM shows additional long distance ordering of the terpy-DNA complexes into fibers.

Abstract
A synthetic methodology for the synthesis of various β-pyrrolic-functionalised porphyrins and their covalent attachment to 2'-deoxyuridine and DNA is described. Palladium(0)-catalysed Sonogashira and copper(I)-catalysed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions were used to insert porphyrins into the structure of 2'-deoxyuridine and DNA. Insertion of a porphyrin into the middle of single-stranded CT oligonucleotides possessing a 5'-terminal run of four cytosines was shown to trigger the formation of pH- and temperature-dependent i-motif structures. Porphyrin insertion also led to the aggregation of single-stranded purine-pyrimidine sequences, which could be dissociated by heating at 90 °C for 5 min. Parallel triplexes and anti-parallel duplexes were formed in the presence of the appropriate complementary strand(s). Depending on the modification, porphyrins were placed in the major and minor grooves of duplexes and were used as bulged intercalating insertions in duplexes and triplexes. In general, the thermal stabilisation of parallel triplexes possessing porphyrin-modified triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) strands was observed, whereas anti-parallel duplexes were destabilised. These results are compared and discussed on the basis of the results of molecular modelling calculations.

Abstract
A porphyrin-acetylide-modified GNA (glycol nucleic acid) phosphoramidite building block was synthesized in an economical fashion starting from (S)-glycidyl-4,4'- dimethoxytrityl ether in just 4 steps with an overall yield of 48%. The porphyrin acetylide nucleotide was incorporated into GNA duplexes opposite ethylene glycol abasic sites and the duplexes were analyzed by UV-melting, UV-vis, fluorescence spectroscopy, and circular dichroism. The modified GNA duplexes display lower thermal stabilities, however, the stabilities of the duplexes can be modulated by the incorporation of Zn(2+) (further destabilization) or Ni(2+) (stabilization relative to the uncomplexed porphyrin). Uncomplexed as well as Ni(2+)-coordinated porphyrins intercalate into the GNA duplex whereas Zn(2+)-coordinated porphyrins are most likely located outside the base stack. Adjacent porphyrins in opposite strands of GNA duplexes show an electronic interaction with each other which might be exploited in the future for the design of photoelectrical devices.

Abstract
Discotic supramolecular complexes bearing six perylene bisimide (PBI) chromophores were prepared by mixing monotopically triple-hydrogen-bonding melamines equipped with two PBI chromophores and two 3,7-dimethyloctyl chiral handles with tritopically triple-hydrogen-bonding cyanuric acid (CA). UV/Vis and fluorescence titration experiments demonstrated that the discotic complexes were formed in methylcyclohexane by the 3:1 complexation between the melamines and CA. TEM and AFM studies revealed that the complexes hierarchically organize into fibrous columnar assemblies, which eventually results in the formation of organogels. Circular dichroism (CD) and flash-photolysis time resolved microwave conductivity measurements revealed the presence of extended chiral stacks of PBI chromophores within the columns. The anisotropy factors of the columnar assemblies are remarkably high (g=1.5×10(-3)) when considering the presence of only one 3,7-dimethyloctyl chiral handle per perylene chromophore, suggesting that the columnar structures have a biased helical sense. The fact that the chiral centers are located inside the discotic complexes rather than at their peripheries might be unique structural property responsible for the rather strong optical activities for the assemblies of this chromophore. The effective transcription of the molecular chirality to the extended columnar assemblies through the formation of unique discotic complexes enables the expression of "majority-rules" chiral amplification effect, which is unprecedented for the supramolecular assemblies of PBIs.

Abstract
A more flexible nucleotide building block for the synthesis of new DNA based porphyrin-zipper arrays is described. Changing the rigid acetylene linker between the porphyrin substituent and the 2'-deoxyuridine to a more flexible propargyl amide containing linkage leads in part to an increased duplex stability. The CD spectra reveal different electronic interactions between the porphyrins depending on the type of linker used. Molecular modelling suggests large variation of the relative orientation of the porphyrins within the major groove of the DNA. The porphyrins can be metallated post-synthetically with different metals as shown with zinc, cobalt and copper. The spectroscopic features do not alter drastically upon metallation apart from the CD spectra, and the stability of the metal complex is highly dependent on the nature of the metal. As shown by CD spectroscopy, the zinc porphyrin is rapidly demetallated at high temperatures. Globular structure determination using SAXS indicates that a molecular assembly comprised of a two to four helical bundle dominates in solution at higher concentrations (≥50 μM) which is not observed by spectroscopy at lower concentrations (≤1 μM).
