PM spectra and their decays in DOO-PPV films and dilute solutions, we conclude that the primary excitations in DOO-PPV films are also singlet excitons [26]. The long excitonic lifetime and a corresponding high PL quantum efficiency [27] indicates that DOO-PPV is a high quality polymer material, which is very suitable for electrooptics and laser action applications [28],... 

The interpretation of our CPG data is complicated by the presence of comparatively fast radiative and nonradiative decay channels for the singlet exciton, which compete with the field-induced dissociation. In order to provide a clear picture of the observed mechanism and disentangle it from the singlet exciton decay dynamics, we define the following phenomenological time-dependent parameter ... 

We assume that standard Coulomb-correlated models for luminescent polymers [11] properly described the intrachain electronic structure of m-LPPP. In this case intrachain photoexcitation generate singlet excitons with odd parity wavefunctions (Bu), which are responsible for the spontaneous and stimulated emission. Since the pump energy in our experiments is about 0.5 eV larger than the optical ran... 

Field-induced exciton-breaking rate. To check the validity of this hypothesis, we have to demonstrate that we can reproduce the measured singlet exciton population quenching using the following equation ... 

A further clear establishment of the absoiption due to singlet excitons and the phonons coupled to them is the electroabsorption experiment reported in Ref. [18]. The main results are shown in Figure 9-14 the top panel shows the absorption spectrum of m-LPPP at 20 K. It becomes clear that the peaks at 2.7, 2.9, and 3.1 eV, representing A0, A i, and A2 (see Fig. 9-10) are not the only vibronic replicas. There are additional peaks between these dominant ones if the experiment is conducted at low temperature. The bottom panel in Figure 9-14 shows a so-called electroabsorption spectrum which is obtained as the modulation (or change) of the absorption under the application of an electric field. Below 3.2 eV the electroab-... 

The efficient formation of singlet excitons from the positive and negative charge carriers, which are injected via the metallic contacts and transported as positive and negative polarons (P+ and P ) in the layer, and the efficient radiative recombination of these singlet excitons formed are crucial processes for the function of efficient electroluminescence devices. 

The design of the organic LEDs should be optimized so that the double charge injection factor and the probability for singlet exciton formation is near to unitv... 

A critical parameter in determining the operating efficiency of polymer LEDs is the luminescence quantum efficiency of singlet excilons in the polymer i.e. the probability that a singlet exciton will decay radiatively. The luminescence quantum elft-...

Exciton decay When an exciton decays radiatively a photon is emitted. When the excitons form in fluorescent materials radiative decay is limited to singlet excitons and emission occurs close to the recombination region [7] of the OLED due to the relatively short lifetime of the excited state (of the order of 10 ns). For phosphorescent materials, emission can occur from triplet excitons. Due to the longer excited state lifetime (of the order of hundreds of nanoseconds), triplet excitons can diffuse further before decaying. 

Phenylquinoxalines (30) turned out to be both fluorescent and phosphorescent emitters [167, 168]. By using these molecules as host, singlet excitons as well as triplet excitons can be transfered by long-range interactions to phosphorescent dopant molecules such as 66.
