Lecture Title:   Harvesting Triplet States in Organic Molecular System

Abstract

    The triplet states in organic molecular systems, including both the excited states and ground ones, are of particular importance to many processes such as photochemical reactions, molecular phosphorescence, initiation of polymerization and molecular magnets. Here we summarize various methods we developed over the past decade to harvest triplet states in organic systems. Specifically, the method of introducing intramolecular charge transfer is conducive to triplet state generation in both the excited and ground states. Application examples from these molecular systems are also discussed.
