Through-space conjugation driven luminescence enhancement in crystalline butterfly architectures†
Abstract
Through-space conjugation in organic chromophores offers significant potential for developing highly efficient luminescent materials. Herein, we investigate the luminescencent properties of crystalline tetra-naphthalene connected dihydropentacene isomers, 1-NP and 2-NP, using both experimental and theoretical approaches, establishing the presence of through-space conjugation mediated luminescence enhancement.
