The electronic excited states of molecular aggregates and their photophysical signatures
have long fascinated spectroscopists and theoreticians alike since the advent of Frenkel …

Singlet fission (SF) is a photophysical downconversion pathway, in which a singlet excitation
transforms into two triplet excited states. As such, it constitutes an exciton multiplication …

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 …

A key breakthrough in modern electronics was the introduction of band structure
engineering, the design of almost arbitrary electronic potential structures by alloying different …

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 …

Quantum-chemical calculations are combined to a model Frenkel-Holstein Hamiltonian to
assess the nature of the lowest electronic excitations in the pentacene crystal. We show that …

Singlet fission and triplet–triplet annihilation represent two highly promising ways of
increasing the efficiency of photovoltaic devices. Both processes are believed to be …

The polarized absorption spectra of crystalline pentacene are obtained for excitation normal
to the ab herringbone plane by measuring transmitted light in ultrathin crystals. The spectral …
