The Mystery of the Missing Energy in Singlet Fission Solar Cells – Solved – Brinkwire

Competition between triplet pair formation and excimer-like recombination controls singlet fission yield.
The efficiency of solar cells can be increased by exploiting a phenomenon known as singlet fission. However, unexplained energy losses during the reaction have until now been a major problem.
A research group led by scientists at Linköping University, Sweden, has discovered what happens during singlet fission and where the lost energy goes.
The results have been published in the journal Cell…
