  • Analytical model for spin dynamics in radical pairs under the spin-locking condition               
    Tomoaki Yago
    The Journal of Chemical Physics, Jun. 2024, [Reviewed]
    Spin dynamics in triplet radical pairs are theoretically studied under the spin-locking condition, where singlet–triplet mixing is blocked by the resonant microwave field. A key assumption in the theory is simultaneous excitations of T+–T0 and T−–T0 transitions in triplet radical pairs. This assumption allows for the application of a three-state model [Yago, J. Chem. Phys. 151, 214501 (2019)] to describe the spin dynamics of triplet radical pairs. The analysis based on the three-state model shows that the triplet states are quantized along the direction of a microwave-induced magnetic field (B1) in the rotating frame under the spin-locking condition. This gives rise to a new spin-locking phenomenon where T+–T0 and T−–T0 mixing are most enhanced at magnetic fields that deviate from the resonance by ±B1. It is also shown that the quantum beats observed under the spin-locking condition originate from the spin dynamics in triplet radical pairs.

    Singlet fission (SF) is a photochemical process, which generates two triplets from a singlet exciton. Its reverse process is termed triplet fusion (TF). When TF occurs between the same geminate triplet-pair generated by SF, delayed fluorescence by geminate fusion might occur when TF between geminate pair involves diffusional encounter. The delayed fluorescence after pulsed excitation decays by power law. In 1,2, and 3 dimensions, the exponent is -3/2, -1 (apart from logarithmic dependence), and -3/2, respectively. The exponent of the power law decay reflects the diffusional anisotropy. Theoretically, the exponent of the power law decay may change from -1 of 2 dimensions to -3/2 of 3 dimensions as time proceed for certain values of the anisotropy ratio in the triplet diffusion constants but the diffusion should be highly anisotropic (1000 times different) to obtain such cross-over. The theoretical results are compared to the measured fluorescence decay in tetracene and rubrene.

    Triplet pairs are generated by singlet fission in organic solids. Triple pairs are important intermediate to determine the efficiency of singlet fission. However nature of the triplet pair states has not been clarified due to the short lifetime of triplet pairs. The magnetic field effects on delayed fluorescence are often observed after singlet fission and triplet fusion. We have measured magnetic field dependence of the intensity of delayed fluorescence with several organic crystals. We determined the structure of a triplet pair generated by singlet fission. The structure of triplet pair for efficient singlet fission were discussed on the basis of the magnetic field dependence of the delayed fluorescence.

    Magnetic field effects (MFEs) on triplet pair generated by singlet fission (SF) in an organic crystal, 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, were studied by steady-state fluorescence measurements under ultra-high magnetic fields of up to 30 T and by time-resolved fluorescence measurements with sub-nanosecond time resolution. The observed MFEs were analyzed by using stochastic Liouville equation based on the radical pair (RP) model. The excellent agreements between the observed and simulated MFEs demonstrate that the RP model can apply to the analysis of the MFE on triplet pair with a modification of the spin Hamiltonian.

    Time-resolved Faraday rotation measurements were performed using photo-excited state of organic molecules. In ionic liquids, the spin system where the two unpaired electron spins are strongly correlated were observed by using the nano-second laser flash photolysis with the combination of the magnetic field. By the application of Miller-Guy method, the analysis of the stochastic Liouville equations was modified to calculate the time evolution of the complex spin system. Electron spin resonance measurements could not be performed due to the trouble of the spectrometer.

    560 GHz time-resolved high-frequency ESR was developed by using30 tesla pulsed magnet and THz light source. Moreover,inhomogeneous nano-space was studied by the magnetic field effect (MFE) probe. In mesoporous silica MCM-41, increases of micro-viscosity were observed by formation of partially clusterization of solvent. In the case of ionic liquids, inhomogeneous structure, which lifetimes were 20-120 ns,was generated in spite of a liquid.

    The purpose of the present study is generation and detection of the large magnetization in organic materials by employing the photo-excited triplet states of organic molecule. Time-resolved Faraday rotation measurement system has been developed by using the lasers, polarizers, and amplifiers. Also the magnetic resonance study on the photo-excited triplet state was performed in Prof. Lin's laboratory at Washington University in St. Louis, collaborating with Prof. Lin and Prof. Kothe from Freiburg University in Germany. Theoretical analysis revealed that the large spin polarizations are generated in the level-crossing region of the triplet state.
