Ab Initio Studies of Triplet-State Properties for Organic Semiconductor Molecules
2012
Triplet–triplet annihilation (TTA) leads to a reduced efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) at high current densities. Spacial confinement of the triplet excitons, which is mainly dependent on triplet energy differences, can reduce the TTA rate. Therefore, a deliberate choice of the organic semiconductor materials with particular attention to their triplet energies can help to considerably increase the device efficiency. Organic solid-state lasers are, on the other hand, efficiently quenched by singlet–triplet annihilation (STA), which is closely related to the triplet–triplet absorption of the organic semiconductors. To establish a useful set of parameters related to the proc…
Calculation of vibrationally resolved absorption and fluorescence spectra of the rylenes
2020
A generating function method was used to simulate the vibrationally resolved absorption and emission spectra of perylene, terrylene and quaterrylene. This method operates on the basis of adiabatic excitation energies and electronic ground and excited state vibrational frequencies. These parameters were calculated using density functional theory with the PBE0 functional for perylene and terrylene and with the BH-LYP functional for quaterrylene. The vertical excitation energies of the lower excited states were calculated using functionals with differing amounts of Hartree-Fock exchange. The optimal functional for each molecule was chosen by comparing these energies to literature excitation en…

Photophysical properties of the triangular [Au(HNCOH)]3 complex and its dimer
2020
Rate constants for radiative and non-radiative transitions of the [Au(HNCOH)]3 complex and its dimer were calculated within the Herzberg–Teller approximation based on quantum mechanical principles. A high triplet quantum yield was estimated for the monomer. Internal conversion (IC) was found to be the major competing process to the intersystem crossing (ISC) from the lowest excited singlet state (S1) to the lowest triplet state (T1). ISC and IC from the spin-mixed 1 state also dominate the triplet relaxation process resulting in a negligible phosphorescence quantum yield for the monomer. The IC and ISC rate constants of the dimer are considerably smaller due to much lower Franck–Condon fact…
