Quantum yields of singlet and triplet recombination products of singlet radical ion pairs
Abstract
The efficiencies of contact geminate recombination to either the ground or excited triplet state of neutral products are calculated for contact and remote starts of radical ion pairs initially created in the singlet state. Considering the spin-conversion in this pair as a stochastic process with given rate, the diffusional dependence of recombination and charge separation yields and corresponding efficiencies are specified. This is compared with the experimental data obtained for photo-excited
