The Influence of Alkyl-Chain Length on Beta-Phase Formation in Polyfluorenes. (2009)
Journal Article
Bright, D., Dias, F., Galbrecht, F., Scherf, U., & Monkman, A. (2009). The Influence of Alkyl-Chain Length on Beta-Phase Formation in Polyfluorenes. Advanced Functional Materials, 19(1), 67-73. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.200800313

Di-n-alkyl substituted polyfluorenes with alkyl chain lengths of 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 carbon atoms (PF6, PF7, PF8, PF9, and PF10) are studied in dilute solution in MCH using optical spectroscopy. Beta-phase is formed upon cooling in solutions (∼ 7 µg m... Read More about The Influence of Alkyl-Chain Length on Beta-Phase Formation in Polyfluorenes..

Enhanced triplet formation by twisted intramolecular charge-transfer excited states in conjugated oligomers and polymers. (2008)
Journal Article
King, S., Matheson, R., Dias, F., & Monkman, A. (2008). Enhanced triplet formation by twisted intramolecular charge-transfer excited states in conjugated oligomers and polymers. Journal of Physical Chemistry B (Soft Condensed Matter and Biophysical Chemistry), 112(27), 8010-8016. https://doi.org/10.1021/jp712163b

The triplet yield and intersystem crossing rate of a set of conjugated oligomers and polymers that, in polar solvents, form a charge-transfer state with a twisted conformation has been investigated. It was observed that in these dibenzothiophene-fluo... Read More about Enhanced triplet formation by twisted intramolecular charge-transfer excited states in conjugated oligomers and polymers..

Dipolar stabilization of emissive singlet charge transfer excited states in polyfluorene copolymers (2008)
Journal Article
Dias, F., King, S., Monkman, A., Perepichka, I., Kryuchkov, M., Perepichka, I., & Bryce, M. (2008). Dipolar stabilization of emissive singlet charge transfer excited states in polyfluorene copolymers. Journal of Physical Chemistry B (Soft Condensed Matter and Biophysical Chemistry), 112(21), 6557-6566. https://doi.org/10.1021/jp800068d

The singlet excited-state dynamics in poly[(9,9-dioctylfluorene)−(dibenzothiophene-S,S-dioxide)] (PFSx) random copolymers with different contents of dibenzothiophene-S,S-dioxide (S) units have been studied by steady-state and time resolved fluorescen...

Dynamics of conformational relaxation in photoexcited oligofluorenes and polyfluorene (2006)
Journal Article
Hintschich, S., Dias, F., & Monkman, A. (2006). Dynamics of conformational relaxation in photoexcited oligofluorenes and polyfluorene. Physical review B, 74(4), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.74.045210

In order to disentangle the relaxation effects of exciton migration and conformational rearrangement, a comparative study of a polyfluorene derivative and short oligofluorenes is carried out. We probe their long-time time-dependent relaxation in dilu... Read More about Dynamics of conformational relaxation in photoexcited oligofluorenes and polyfluorene.
