Solvent Properties

Quantum coherence and their interplay with electronic transfer (ET) in organic-based materials for light harvesting rely on the solvent properties and temperature effects, as shown in the figure for the D2F complex (D–A push–pull chromophore) population inversion (left), and ET rates (right) for methanol in the strong coupling regime. ET rates are enhanced, at room temperature, by two orders of magnitude if compared to results obtained for toluene.
