A covalently linked tetracene trimer with a “face-to-face” stacked structure was prepared and its molecular structure is characterized by 1H NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. The minimized molecular structure reveals that three tetracene subunits within this trimer adopt a partially “face-to-face” stacked configuration. Its absorption spectrum differs significantly from that of the monomeric and dimeric counterparts in solution due to the strong ground state interactions between the neighboring tetracene subunits. Its fluorescence is almost quenched completely. An ultrafast fluorescence decay component is observed in its fluorescence dynamics, indicating the presence of an ultrafast nonradiative decay channel in the trimer. The nonradiative channel is proved to be intramolecular singlet fission (iSF) by femto-second transient absorption studies. Different from the strongly coupled triplet state observed in the corresponding dimer, weakly coupled triplet states can be formed in this trimer. The triplet quantum yield of trimer 4 can reach up to 126% in solution.

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.
