Charge separation and intersystem crossing in compact orthogonal and sterically encumbered 6,12-diphenyl indolo[3,2-b]carbazole-naphthalimide electron donor-acceptor dyad

A compact electron donor-acceptor dyad NI-ICz with 6,12-diphenyl-indolo[3,2-b]carbazole (ICz) as the electron donor and naphthalimide (NI) as the acceptor, was prepared to study the electron transfer (ET) and the thermally-activated...
