The calculated results of the se physical quantities for alexandrite agreewith experimental data very well. Besides, we deduce expressions of intensity distributionand integrated intensity of a multiphonon sideband in non--Condon approximation. The cal-culated values of integrated intensities are obviously better than the intensity fitting resultsof previous work. From these calculated values we can also acquire a quantitative under-standing of the errors of Condon approximation.展开更多

With increasing cap layer thickness, the PL peak energy shifts to lower energy and the coupling strength between the exciton and longitudinal- optical (LO) phonon, described by Huang-Rhys factor, increases remarkably due to an enhancement of the internal electric field. With increasing excitation intensity, the zero-phonon peak shows a blueshift and the Huang-Rhys factor decreases. These results reveal that there is a large built-in electric field in the well layer and the exciton-LO-phonon coupling is strongly affected by the thickness of the cap layer.展开更多

Besides, we calculate the proportion of each conformation by Boltzmann distribution, high configuration ratios(44% and 52%) can be found for C and D. Moreover, C and D are found to exist with an intramolecular π-π interaction between one donor and the acceptor; the intramolecular interaction brings a smaller Huang-Rhys factor and reduced reorganization energy. Our work presents a rational explanation for the experimental results and demonstrates the importance of the intramolecular π-π interaction to the photophysical properties of TADF molecules.展开更多

We develop a theoretical model for the quantitative estimation of the Huang-Rhys factor S and averagephonon energy (hω) based on exciton coupling with longitudinal optical and acoustic phonons in the Frohlich and deformation potential mechanisms, respectively. We present reasonable explanations for the fitted values of the Huang-Rhys factor and average phonon energy adopted in experiments. Com- parison with experimental results reveals that the temperature dependence of the peak position in the excitonic spectra can be well reproduced by modulating the polarization parameter and deformation potential constant.展开更多
