Abstract
The photophysical properties of a donor-acceptor compound based on triphenylamine-modified vinylbenzothiazole derivative (BTTM) are investigated by multispectral techniques. Based on the pump-probe and pump-dump/push-probe technique, it is found that the hybridized localized excited (LE) and charge transfer (CT) state (HLCT) participates in the relaxation process of excited BTTM. The excited state is the LE-dominated HLCT state in cyclohexane; then it evolves to the CT-dominated HLCT state in a high polarity solvent. Meanwhile, a new intermediate state named the HLCT' state also exists in a high polar solvent. When the temperature of BTTM film drops, the increasing photoluminescence (PL) lifetime and PL quantum yield are assigned to the nonradiative recombination inactivation. The pump-probe data show that exciton-exciton annihilation originating from exciton collision gradually increases owing to the weakening of phonon-exciton scattering at low temperature. Our results provide comprehensive insight into the optoelectronic properties of organic molecules.
