We have designed a series of pentacene dimers separated by homoconjugated or nonconjugated bridges that exhibit fast and efficient intramolecular singlet exciton fission (iSF). These materials are dis
A series of pyrene-fused thioxanthenes have been synthesized via a new concise route, and their crystal structures and photophysical properties have been fully investigated. The eight-ring fused dipyr
Five rigid oxadiazole (OXD) containing silanes, denoted 1–5, have been developed with high morphological stability. Disruption of the π-aromatic conjugation by introduction of Si atoms leads to a larg
A biphenyl-fused BODIPY was synthesized through a facile oxidative cyclization of peripheral aryl-substituents at the β-position of the BODIPY unit. The extended π-system of the fused BODIPY induces n
