Research demonstrates effective singlet fission and triplet separation in amorphous films, suggesting new pathways for photovoltaic device enhancement.
Key Points
Efficient singlet fission occurs in disordered thin films without long-range molecular packing, emphasizing flexibility.
Structural analysis revealed robust triplet separation processes, occurring despite the lack of typical π–π stacking.
The design of a tethered cyclophane-like skeleton facilitates the development of high-performance singlet fission systems.
Findings highlight the potential for new materials in photovoltaic applications, necessitating a shift in material design strategies.
