Singlet exciton fission (SEF) is initiated by ultrafast internal conversion of a singlet exciton into a correlated triplet pair (TT)1. The `reaction coordinates' for ultrafast SEF even in archetypal systems such as pentacene thin film…
Singlet fission is a spin-allowed exciton multiplication process in organic semiconductors that converts one spin-singlet exciton to two triplet excitons. It offers the potential to enhance solar energy conversion by circumventing the…

Precise understanding of the electronic structures of optically dark triplet-triplet multiexcitons that are the intermediate states in singlet fission (SF) continues to be a challenge. This is particularly true for intramolecular singlet…

Singlet fission (SF) is a multielectron process in which one singlet exciton S converts into a pair of triplet excitons T+T. SF is widely studied as it may help overcome the Shockley-Queisser efficiency limit for semiconductor photovoltaic…
Endothermic singlet fission (SF), an exciton multiplication process that produces a pair of high-energy triplet excitons (T1T1), is appealing for photovoltaic or photoelectrochemical applications, as it allows the conversion of entropy into…
