Deskripsi

Room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) is a topic which is currently widely studied, but a study on the correlation between types of molecular solid and RTP properties is lacking. Here the authors show that RTP is enhanced in the racemic form of axial chiral molecules due to its denser R- and S- cross packing arrangement.
