    Abstract Multiple myeloma is a common hematological malignancy of plasma cells, the terminally differentiated B cells that secrete antibodies as part of the adaptive immune response. Significant progress has been made in treating multiple myeloma, but this disease remains largely incurable, and most patients will eventually suffer a relapse of disease that becomes refractory to further therapies. Moreover, a portion of patients with multiple myeloma present with disease that is refractory to all treatments from the initial diagnosis, and no current therapeutic approaches can help. Therefore, the task remains to advance new therapeutic strategies to help these vulnerable patients. One strategy to meet this challenge is to unravel the complex web of pathogenic signaling pathways in malignant plasma cells and use this information to design novel precision medicine strategies to assist these patients most at risk.

    Abstract Many methods exist to study oncogenic signaling in lymphoma cells, each with certain strengths and weaknesses. The proximity ligation assay (PLA) is a technique used to examine protein-protein interactions in situ. PLA offers many advantages over traditional biochemical approaches to signaling in that it can detect both transient interactions, which are hard to capture otherwise, as well as protein interactions within large supramolecular signaling platforms that are often intractable to traditional biochemical methodologies. In addition, PLA can be adapted for use in lymphoma biopsy samples to translate findings from the lab. Implementation of PLA can complement many types of lymphoma research, and the methods presented herein can be adapted to a number of experimental settings.

    Abstract ConspectusChromophore aggregates are capable of a wide variety of excited-state dynamics that are potentially of great use in optoelectronic devices based on organic molecules. For example, singlet fission, the process by which a singlet exciton is down converted into two triplet excitons, holds promise for extending the efficiency of solar cells, while other processes, such as excimer formation, are commonly regarded as parasitic pathways or traps. Other processes, such as symmetry-breaking charge transfer, where the excited dimer charge separates into a radical ion pair, can be both a trap and potentially useful in devices, depending on the context. Thus, an understanding of the precise mechanisms of each of these processes is vital to designing tailor-made organic chromophores for molecular optoelectronics.These excited-state phenomena have each been well-studied in recent years and show tantalizing connections as the molecular systems and environments are subtly changed. These seemingly disparate phenomena can be described within the same unifying framework, where each case can be represented as one point in continuum of mixed states. The coherent mixed state is observed experimentally, and it collapses to each of the limiting cases under well-defined conditions. This framework is especially useful in demonstrating the connections between these different states so that we can determine the factors that control their evolution and may ultimately guide the state mixtures to the product state of choice. The emerging picture shows that tuning the electronic coupling through proper arrangement of the chromophores must accompany environmental tuning of the chromophore energies to produce a fully mixed state. Changes in either of these quantities leads to evolution of the admixture and ultimately collapsing the superposition onto a given state, producing one of the photophysical pathways discussed above.In our laboratory, we are utilizing covalent dimers to precisely arrange the chromophores in rigid, well-defined geometries to systematically study the factors that determine the degree of state mixing and its fate. We interrogate these dynamics with transient absorption spectroscopy from the UV continuously into the mid-infrared, along with time-resolved Raman and emission and magnetic resonance spectroscopies to build a complete and detailed molecular level picture of the dynamics of these dimers. The knowledge gained from dimer studies can also be applied to the understanding the dynamics in extended molecular solids. The insight afforded by these studies will help guide the creation of new designer chromophores with control over the fate of the excited state.

    Abstract Sub-nanosecond photodriven electron transfer from a molecular donor to an acceptor can be used to generate a radical pair (RP) having two entangled electron spins in a well-defined pure initial singlet quantum state to serve as a spin-qubit pair (SQP). Achieving good spin-qubit addressability is challenging because many organic radical ions have large hyperfine couplings (HFCs) in addition to significant

    Abstract Photoexcitation of molecular electron donor and/or acceptor chromophore aggregates can greatly affect their charge-transfer dynamics. Excitonic coupling not only alters the energy landscape in the excited state but may also open new photophysical pathways, such as symmetry-breaking charge separation (SB-CS). Here, we investigate the impact of excitonic coupling on a covalent donor-acceptor-acceptor system comprising a perylene donor (Per) and two perylenediimide (PDI) acceptor chromophores in which the three components are π-stacked in a geometry that is slipped along their long axes (

    Abstract Crystalline donor-acceptor (D-A) systems serve as an excellent platform for studying CT exciton creation, migration, and dissociation into free charge carriers for solar energy conversion. Donor-acceptor cocrystals have been utilized to develop an understanding of CT exciton formation in ordered organic solids; however, the strong electronic coupling of the D and A units can sometimes limit charge separation lifetimes due to their close proximity. Covalent D-A systems that preorganize specific donor-acceptor structures can assist in engineering crystal morphologies that promote long-lived charge separation to overcome this limitation. Here we investigate photogenerated CT exciton formation in a single crystal of a 2,5,8,11-tetraphenylperylene (PerPh

    Abstract Vibronic coupling, the interplay of electronic and nuclear vibrational motion, is considered a critical mechanism in photoinduced reactions such as energy transfer, charge transfer, and singlet fission. However, our understanding of how particular vibronic couplings impact excited-state dynamics is lacking due to the limited number of experimental studies of model molecular systems. Herein, we use two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) to launch and interrogate a range of vibronic coherences in two distinct types of perylenediimide slip stacks─along the short and long molecular axes, which form either an excimer or a mixed state between the Frenkel exciton (FE) and charge transfer states. We explore the functionality of these vibronic coherences using quantum beatmaps, which display the Fourier amplitude signal oscillations as a function of pump and probe frequencies, along with knowledge of the characteristic signatures of the FE, ionic, and excimer species. We find that a low-frequency vibrational mode of the short-axis slip stack appears concomitantly with the formation of the excimer state, survives 2-fold longer than in the FE state in the reference monomer, and shows a phase shift compared to other modes. For the long-axis slip stacks, a pair of low-frequency modes coupled to a high-frequency coordinate of the FE state were found to play a critical role in mixed-state generation. Our findings thus experimentally reveal the complex and varying roles of vibronic couplings in tightly packed multimers undergoing a range of photoinduced processes.
