Article Synopsis
- Singlet fission (SF) can enhance the efficiency of electronic devices by converting one singlet exciton into two triplet excitons, but its success relies on molecular packing and structure.
- Certain benchmark materials for SF, like acenes, face challenges such as photodegradation, which can hinder their effectiveness.
- This study compares different packing styles of functionalized tetracenes and finds that while both packing types support SF effectively, "slip-stack" is better at lower temperatures, and "gamma" packing shows superior resistance to photodegradation, suggesting a balance between SF efficiency and material stability can be achieved through smart design.
