Directing energy flow in light harvesting assemblies of nanocrystal-chromophore hybrid systems requires a better understanding of factors that dictate excited-state processes. In this study, we explore excited-state interactions within the CsPbI-cyanine dye (IR125) hybrid assembly through a comprehensive set of steady-state and time-resolved absorption and photoluminescence (PL) experiments. Our photoluminescence investigations reveal the quenching of CsPbI emission alongside the simultaneous enhancement of IR125 fluorescence, providing evidence for a singlet energy transfer.
