Abstract: The article presents the synthesis, STM detection and the efficient energy hopping (EEH) in near-infrared region of cyclic and hexagonal prismatic porphyrin arrays. Two-dimensional cyclic arrays are found to be excellent for EEH processes for artificial biomimic light harvesting apparatus.
