Photoexcitations of Oligothiophenes with Reduced Conformational Mobility
Keyword(s):
AbstractWe present a comprehensive study of the optical and electronic properties of a series of oligothiophenes in which one or two inter-ring torsional angles have been blocked by chemical bridging. These give us the possibility to investigate the role of the conformational mobility and of the coupling with the inter-ring torsion on the deactivation process of the singlet excited states. We find that both the radiative and the non-radiative deactivation channels are affected by the inter-ring bridging.
