The feasibility conditions of singlet fission on the excitation energy differences are revealed as functions of the multiple diradical characters y(i) [defined by the occupation numbers of the LUNO (= Lowest Unoccupied Natural Orbital) + i (i = 0, 1, ...), where 0 <= y(i) <= 1 and y(i) >= y(j) (i > j)] using the linear H-4 full configuration interaction model. The diradical characters suited for singlet fission are found to lie in the region with y(0) > 0.10 except for y(0) similar to y(1), though its energy efficiency is better in case of smaller y(0), to which diradical and multiradical compounds with low/intermediate diradical characters such as open-shell singlet polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons belong. These findings indicate that the multiple diradical character is an effective indicator for exploring Molecular systems for efficient singlet fission.
