Abstract

In this study, we investigated the photophysical properties of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(3-

methoxyphenyl)acrylonitrile (3MeO-4ClAN) at various concentrations in DMSO solvent. We specifically examined the effect of different solute concentrations on the optoelectronic properties of this compound, with a focus on applications requiring a low optical band gap. The results demonstrate the potential of 3MeO-4ClAN for optoelectronic applications across a range of concentrations. Experimental optical measurements were performed at different molarities, covering wavelengths from 190 to 1100 nm, using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectral analysis at room temperature.
