Overview
Aromatic chromophores are organic molecules that absorb light in the visible range and emit light in the form of fluorescence. These molecules possess an extended pi-electron system which makes them ideal candidates for use in optical devices including lasers. They are also used in dyes and in pharmaceuticals for various medical and industrial applications. Aromatic chromophores are important for their ability to absorb light in the visible range, enabling them to be used for imaging, signalling, and detection.
