The synthesis of a nanocar with a built-in strong net dipole is disclosed. The synthesis was executed to explore a more effective handle on electric-field-induced rolling of nanocars. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Three novel rod-like Pt(II)-diacetylides have been synthesized. When subjected to intense laser light, all three compounds showed strong optical power limiting at 532 and 600 nm. DFT calculated triplet-triplet electronic excitations were found to correlate with the nonlinear absorption. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
