Pushing the Limits of the Donor-Acceptor Copolymer Strategy for Intramolecular Singlet Fission

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Maria Fumanal Quintana

Donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymers have shown great potential for intramolecular singlet fission (iSF). Nonetheless, very few design principles exist for optimizing these systems for iSF, with very little knowledge about how to engineer them for this purpose. ...
