Brief Project description:

Nature hosts complex adaptive networks with precise spatio-temporal control, coupled with sophisticated functionality. In the recent past, our group has made significant inroads toward elucidating the synthetic strategies for the realization of these concepts in synthetic materials. Also, we have been working on creating living and out-of-equilibrium supramolecular systems with exceptional control over sequence in multicomponent domain.

Triplet harvesting of organic chromophores is considered as the most viable way to improve the efficiency of organic light emitting materials, though the stabilization of organic triplets under ambient conditions is difficult due to oxygen and vibrational quenching. In recent past, we tried to attain “Ambient triplet harvesting via phosphorescence and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF)” by applying unique approaches.
