Enhanced intersystem crossing in carbonylpyrenes
Literature Information

Ultrafast intersystem crossing of carbonylpyrenes in chloroform was investigated by femtosecond pump–probe spectroscopy. When compared to the dominant fluorescence decay pathway in pyrene, carbonyl functionalized pyrenes display near-unity triplet formation upon photoexcitation. The excited singlet state (Sp) undergoes rapid intersystem crossing (kISC) concomitantly with internal conversion (kIC) to lower excited singlet states (Sn) within a timescale of 5–11 ps (1/τ2 = kIC + kISC). Furthermore, intersystem crossing from lower excited singlet states (Sn) proceeds through coupling with receiver triplet states, eventually leading to high triplet quantum yields (ΦT = 97%; tetraacetylpyrene). Followed by internal conversion in the triplet manifolds, phosphorescence decay on a microsecond timescale is observed from the emitter triplet state.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
