Described simply, singlet fission is a process in which a singlet excited molecule transfers about half of its excitation energy to a neighbor molecule, both end up in their triplet state, and the two triplet excitations diffuse apart. The process is of interest for solar cells. Used in conjunction with ordinary solar cell material, a layer of singlet-fission material offers an opportunity to utilize higher energy photons more efficiently. The maximum theoretical efficiency is then close to 1/2 instead of the Shockley-Queisser value of 1/3 that applies to an ordinary single-junction cell. The problem that prevents an immediate production of singlet fission solar cells is the dearth of sufficiently stable efficient materials. The formulation of simple rules for the design of suitable compounds for the purpose is discussed.

The nonradiative decay of the lowest triplet state for quinoidal singlet fission materials can be effectively suppressed by increasing molecular planarity and rigidity.

<p>Side-chain substitutions have important influence on the aggregation of perylene diimide (PDI), which show a great impact on their excited-state dynamics as well. Herein, by employing photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) and transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy, we investigated excited-state dynamics of two perylene diimide (PDI) derivative amorphous films, i.e. undecane-substituted PDI (PDI-1) and diisopropylphenyl-substituted PDI (PDI-2), fabricated with spin coating method. Femtosecond transient absorption spectra reveal that both films show pronounced ground state bleach (GSB) with lifetime longer than 10 ns while the relaxation of excited state absorption (ESA) has typical lifetime less than 1 ns. The significant feature of excited state decay in PDI-2 is dominated by transforming the singlet excited state into two triplet states via singlet fission, which is evidenced by the appearance of triplet state absorption. By contrast, the absence of triplet state absorption and the appearance of long-lived emission species in PDI-1 suggest that the decay of excited-like state could be dominated by the formation of excimer. Our present study reveals for the first time that the singlet fission does occur in amorphous PDI film, the study also demonstrates that side-chain substitutions have great impact on the excited-state dynamics of PDI. </p>
