We develop a powerful tree tensor network states method that is capable of simulating exciton-phonon quantum dynamics of larger molecular complexes and open quantum systems with multiple bosonic environments. We interface this method with…
Based on the Frenkel-charge transfer (CT) mixing model of singlet fission (SF), we incorporate both the local and nonlocal phonon baths in the Hamiltonian and adopt the algorithm of time-dependent density matrix renormalization group to…
In the preceding paper, we assembled the theoretical components necessary for a unified framework of singlet fission, a type of multiexciton generation producing two triplet excitons from one singlet exciton. In this paper, we apply our…
The mechanisms underlying coherent and thermally activated singlet exciton fission in pi-stacked acene crystals are clarified based on quantum dynamics simulations parameterized against a highly correlated description of the electronic…
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…
Singlet fission (SF) is a very significant photophysical phenomenon and possesses potential applications. In this work, we try to give the rather detailed theoretical investigation of the SF process in the stacked polyacene dimer by…
Molecular dimers are widely utilized as a tool to investigate the structure-property relationships behind the complex photophysical processes of condensed-phase systems, where structural tuning remains a challenge. This approach often…
We report on large-scale simulations of intrachain exciton dynamics in poly(para-phenylene vinylene). Our coarse-grained model describes Frenkel exciton coupling to both fast, quantized C-C bond vibrations and slow, classical torsional…
The fission of singlet excitons into triplet pairs in organic materials holds great technological promise, but the rational application of this phenomenon is hampered by a lack of understanding of its complex photophysics. Here, we use the…
Singlet fission, the molecular process through which photons are effectively converted into pairs of lower energy triplet excitons, holds promise as a means of boosting photovoltaic device efficiencies. In the preceding article of this…
We experimentally show that the rate of singlet fission in tetracene films has a superlinear dependence on the density of photo-excited singlet excitons with ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy. The spectrotemporal features of…
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…
Singlet fission, a process that splits a singlet exciton into a biexciton, has promise in quantum information. We report time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance measurements on a molecule, TIPS-BP1$'$, designed to exhibit strongly…
Singlet fission is a photoconversion process that generates a doubly excited, maximally spin entangled pair state. This state has applications to quantum information and computing that are only beginning to be realized. In this article, we…
The importance of singlet fission as a fundamental process with a variety of implications in energy harvesting cannot be overstated. The challenge is in characterizing the energy states of these large singlet fission molecular aggregates…
We develop a theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers. Following photoexcitation of the 'bright' state (i.e., a singlet electron-hole pair) in a single carotenoid, the first step in the singlet fission process is ultrafast…
We report quadruple configuration interaction calculations within the extended Pariser$-$Parr$-$Pople Hamiltonian on the excited states of aggregates of polyenes, crystalline acenes, and covalently linked dimers of acene molecules. We…
The growing interest in harnessing singlet fission for photovoltaic applications stems from the possibility of generating two excitons from a single photon. Quantum efficiencies above unity have been reported, yet the correlation between…
Kinetics of singlet fission in organic semiconductors, in which the excited singlet state (S_1) spontaneously splits into a pair of triplet (T) excitons, is known to be strongly influenced by back geminate annihilation of TT-pairs. We show…
Experiments in several intramolecular singlet fission materials have indicated that the triplet-triplet spin biexciton has a much longer lifetime than believed until recently, opening up loss mechanisms that can annihilate the biexciton…
