(Graph Presented) Tuning with pressure: Splitting of the Soret band in the novel amphiphilic porphyrin (OD)3TPPS3 is reversibly tuned by applying surface pressure (see figure). The degenerated transition of the Soret band is broken as a result of the formation of an ordered monolayer, which causes individual coupling of the components Bx and By of the Soret band.
