Abstract
Development of two-dimensional materials and exploration of their functionalities are significant challenges due to their potential. In this study, we successfully fabricated a supramolecular nanosheet composed of amphiphilic Rose Bengal dyes in an aqueous medium. Furthermore, we elucidated a distinct change in the photosensitisation mechanism induced by nanosheet formation.

Abstract
Fluorescence spectroscopy of gas-phase ions generated through electrospray ionization is an emerging technique able to probe intrinsic molecular photophysics directly without perturbations from solvent interactions. While there is ample scope for the ongoing development of gas-phase fluorescence techniques, the recent expansion into low-temperature operating conditions accesses a wealth of data on intrinsic fluorophore photophysics, offering enhanced spectral resolution compared with room-temperature measurements, without matrix effects hindering the excited-state dynamics. This perspective reviews current progress on understanding the photophysics of anionic fluorone dyes, which exhibit an unusually large Stokes shift in the gas phase, and discusses how comparison of gas- and condensed-phase fluorescence spectra can fingerprint structural dynamics. The capacity for temperature-dependent measurements of both fluorescence emission and excitation spectra helps establish the foundation for the use of fluorone dyes as fluorescent tags in macromolecular structure determination. We suggest ideas for technique development.

Abstract
We compare the intersystem crossing rate, kISC, of Rose Bengal (RB) in an aqueous pH 12 solution with the corresponding relaxation rates of four different RB-derived anion and dianion species isolated in the gas phase: the doubly deprotonated dianion ([RB-2H]2-), the singly deprotonated monoanion ([RB-H]-), and the corresponding singly negatively charged sodium and cesium adducts ([RB-2H + Na]- and [RB-2H + Cs]-, respectively). Each of them was probed following photoexcitation of their first singlet excited states (S1) at or near room temperature. The solution was studied by transient absorption spectroscopy, whereas the mass-selected anions were characterized by time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy─all with ca. 50 femtosecond temporal resolution. [RB-H]- shows an S1 lifetime of ca. 80 ps; the solution ensemble, thought to consist primarily of solvated dianion chromophores, shows a similar lifetime of ca. 70 ps. By contrast, the isolated dianion, [RB-2H]2-, has a much longer lifetime. Superimposed on S1 decay attributable mainly to intersystem crossing, all four isolated anions also show some rapid oscillatory features of the transient photoelectron signal on a 4-5 ps timescale after excitation. Interestingly, an analogous phenomenon is also seen in the transient absorption measurements. We attribute it to a librational oscillation as the S1 state, initially populated in the S0 geometry, relaxes into its excited state equilibrium structure. Some implications of these observations for RB photophysics and interpretation of solution measurements are discussed─also in terms of density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory calculations of ground and excited states.
