Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Nov 02, 2024
In organic molecules, an exciton is a pair formed by an electron with a negative charge and a corresponding positive charge hole. These two are bound together by Coulombic forces and can move within molecular assemblies. Singlet fission (SF) is a process that amplifies an exciton, resulting in the creation of two triplet excitons from a single singlet exciton. This is driven by the absorpt
