要旨

Dropcast films of very low concentration domains of phenazine 1,2,3-triazole molecules, blended in a Zeonex matrix, were studied by steady-state fluorescence as a function of temperature. These domains, randomly spread in the volume of the films, presented emission characteristics of singlet and triplet states coming from different molecular conformations. Emissions of singlet monomers, dimers or more complex aggregates, as well two distinct triplet phosphorescent bands, were observed to appear concomitantly or in isolated forms. From the analysis of the experimental results, the additional red-shifted phosphorescent band appeared as a consequence of the formation of dimer and/or more complex aggregated states. The emission characteristics of both phosphorescent bands were classified as coming from ensembles of a few interactive molecules. This statement was assumed based on the absence of replica modes of vibrational spin–orbit interactions.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
