Abstract

Accurate research of the photophysical processes is of great significance for the rational design of excellent thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. Herein, the interconversion and decay rates of the first excited singlet state (S1) and triplet states (T1) in the Cu(pop)(pz2BH2) complex are computed using the thermal vibration correlation function (TVCF) theory at different temperature. For consideration of the solid-state environment, a methodology that is based on the ONIOM model, combined with the optimally tuned range-separated hybrid functional (CAM-B3LYP*) method, was applied. Our calculated results are in excellent agreement with the experimentally available data. It has been found that the energy dissipation of the nonradiative processes from the S1 to ground state is promoted by low frequency vibrational modes in the solution phase, resulting in the high knr(S) = 1.68 × 108 s-1 at 300 K. However, for the crystal phase, they are easily hindered through intermolecular interactions, knr(S) is predicted to be decreased by about 5 orders of magnitude upon aggregation (2.98 × 103 s-1). With temperature increase, the reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) rate kRISC from T1 to S1 is drastically increased to ...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
