Research Abstract |
The following are the main results obtained in the present study. (1) Diphenylpolyynes (DPY) have a linear planar structure belonging to the D_<2h> point group in the T_1 states, which were assigned to ^3B_<1u> (π_xπ_x^*) in character. (2) The T_1 (π_xπ_x^*) states of DPY have unusually large negative D values for the ZFS parameters that increase with increasing the molecular size. (3) The large negative D value was interpreted in terms of the spin-orbit interaction between the T_1(^3π_xπ_x^*) state and the upper-lying ^3Au (π_xπ_y^*) state. (4) The energy gap between these two states was determined from the observed D values and the calculation of the spin-orbit matrix, indicating that the value decreases with increasing the number of triple bonds. (5) The rapid radiationless transition was also found in the decay from the T_1 state to the S_0 state. The k_<nr> value increases with the decrease in the energy separation between the T_1 and S_0 states, indicating the importance of the Franck-Condon factor between them for the nonradiative deactivation. (6) The appearance of the satellites due to the b_<1g> vibronic bands in the phosphorescence spectra of DPY suggests that the potential surface in the T_1 states would be shallow along the b_<1g> coordinate by the vibronic coupling between the T_1 (π_xπ_x^*) and the ^3π_xπ_y states promoted by the ring twisting motion. (7) Therefore, it is concluded that the energy proximity between the T_1 (^3B_<1u>:π_xπ_y^*) and Tu(^3Au:π_xπ_y^*) states in DPY not only increases the negative D values of the ZFS parameters by the spin-orbit interaction but also accelerates the nonradiative decay from the T_1 state by the vibronic interaction.
