Exciton Dynamics of a Diketo-Pyrrolopyrrole Core for All Low-Lying Electronic Excited States Using Density Functional Theory-Based Methods

Anjay Manian et al.

Summary: This article highlights the importance of ab initio treatments of interexcited state internal conversion (IC) and their potential applications in molecular photophysics. By including this mechanism, more efficient synthesis of chromophores for photon-harvesting applications can be achieved. Using density functional theory (DFT), the authors studied the exciton dynamics and found that same-spin transfer mechanisms dominate over spin-flipping intersystem crossing (ISC) rates, with only the first singlet excited state showing a reasonable probability of triplet exciton generation.

Franck-Condon and Herzberg-Teller Signatures in Molecular Absorption and Emission Spectra

Sohang Kundu et al.

Summary: The author reveals the spectral asymmetry caused by the interference between the Franck-Condon approximation and Herzberg-Teller coupling through analysis of model systems, as well as the recovery of symmetry and transition from fluorescence to absorption dominance with specific parameter combinations. Additionally, large asymmetric shifts of absorption and emission band maxima and nontrivial modulation of spectral asymmetry by temperature were discovered.

Singlet Exciton Dynamics of Perylene Diimide- and Tetracene-Based Hetero/Homogeneous Substrates via an Ab Initio Kinetic Monte Carlo Model

A. Manian et al.

Summary: This study focuses on singlet exciton dynamics within a typical LSC device, utilizing rejection-free kinetic Monte Carlo methods and ab initio rate constants computed using time-dependent density functional theory-based approaches. Results indicate that PDI-based substrates exhibit enhanced singlet exciton transport properties compared to tetracene, with slightly improved transport seen in substrates with dipole-aligned chromophores. Additionally, simulations of a PDI-tetracene substrate show that transport is primarily mediated by PDI due to asymmetrical transport rates between the dyes, with implications for future LSC design.

Efficient enumeration of bosonic configurations with applications to the calculation of non-radiative rates

Robert A. Shaw et al.

Summary: This research introduces algorithms for efficiently enumerating configuration spaces, with applications in calculating non-radiative rates and providing an open-source implementation. Configuration spaces are present in various areas of physics, and enumerating all possible configurations in bosonic systems is a challenging problem. Three new algorithms are proposed in this study that are several orders of magnitude more efficient than the naive brute force approach.

Modeling radiative and non-radiative pathways at both the Franck-Condon and Herzberg-Teller approximation level

A. Manian et al.

Summary: A concise model is presented to predict the photoluminescent properties of compounds from first principles, discussing formalism required for computing fluorescence, Internal Conversion, and Inter-System Crossing. The study demonstrates promising results for photoluminescent quantum yield in small compounds, with rate constants comparing well to experiment despite overestimated triplet energies. The methodology appears sound at the quantum chemistry level and could be important in predicting properties of larger systems.
