The exciton, an excited electron–hole pair bound by Coulomb attraction, plays a key role in
photophysics of organic molecules and drives practically important phenomena such as …

Organic (opto) electronic materials have received considerable attention due to their
applications in thin-film-transistors, light-emitting diodes, solar cells, sensors, photorefractive …

Singlet fission is a photophysical reaction in which a singlet excited electronic state splits
into two spin-triplet states. Singlet fission was discovered more than 50 years ago, but the …

Singlet exciton fission is a carrier multiplication process in organic semiconductors that
generates two electron–hole pairs for each photon absorbed. Singlet fission occurs on sub …

Open-shell molecules such as radicals, carbenes, and electronically excited-state molecules
exhibit high energies, and thus, in general, they are quite reactive. 1 The short-lived species …

Singlet fission is the spin-allowed conversion of a spin-singlet exciton into a pair of spin-
triplet excitons residing on neighbouring molecules. To rationalize this phenomenon, a …

van der Waals heterojunctions between two-dimensional (2D) layered materials and
nanomaterials of different dimensions present unique opportunities for gate-tunable …

Entanglement of states is one of the most surprising and counter-intuitive consequences of
quantum mechanics, with potent applications in cryptography and computing. In organic …

Singlet fission, the splitting of a singlet exciton into two triplet excitons in molecular materials,
is interesting not only as a model many-electron problem, but also as a process with …

The efficient transfer of energy between organic and inorganic semiconductors is a widely
sought after property, but has so far been limited to the transfer of spin-singlet excitons. Here …
