The photoluminescence (PL) efficiency of substituted alpha -conjugated quaterthiophene crystals shows marked differences depending on crystal packing and molecular geometry. This effect is studied by evaluating the role of the intermolecular interactions and the effects of the single molecule conformation on the intersystem crossing (ISC) rate. The comparison of these calculations with absolute quantum effciency measurements and with the experimental temperature dependence of the PL decay time, indicates that the differences in PL efficiency are not inherent to crystal packing effects but they an determined by the ISC rate.

Abstract
The photoluminescence (PL) efficiency of substituted alpha -conjugated quaterthiophene crystals shows marked differences depending on crystal packing and molecular geometry. This effect is studied by evaluating the role of the intermolecular interactions and the effects of the single molecule conformation on the intersystem crossing (ISC) rate. The comparison of these calculations with absolute quantum effciency measurements and with the experimental temperature dependence of the PL decay time, indicates that the differences in PL efficiency are not inherent to crystal packing effects but they an determined by the ISC rate.File in questo prodotto:
