Using a variety of steady state and time-resolved microscopies, this work directly compares the excited state dynamics of two distinct morphologies of a hierarchical perylene diimide material: a kinetically trapped 1D mesoscale aggregate produced with a redox-assisted self-assembly process, and a thin film produced via conventional solution-processing techniques. Although the constituent monomer is identical for both materials, linear dichroism studies indicate that the kinetically trapped structures possess significantly higher long-range order than the conventional thin film. A comparison of the two systems with broadband pump−probe microscopy reveals distinct differences in their excited state dynamics. In the kinetically trapped structures, polarization-resolved kinetics, as well as a picosecond redshift of the ground state bleach provide evidence for rapid excited state delocalization, which is absent in the thin film. A comparison of transient spectra collected at 1 μs indicates the presence of long-lived charge separated states in redox treated samples, but not in the thin film. These results provide direct evidence that control of the supramolecular assembly process can be leveraged to affect the long-range order of derived PDI materials, thus enabling increased yield and lifetime of charge separated states for light harvesting applications. Furthermore, these results highlight the need for microscale broadband probes of organic materials to accurately capture the influence of local morphology on excited state functionality.
