“…70,71 Increased temperature will increase triplet diffusion rates based on thermally activated hopping, which results in triplets reaching quenching sites more rapidly and reduces the effective triplet diffusion length, L . 40 As a result, with increasing temperatures, an increasing portion of the initially generated triplet states will be quenched via other pathways rather than the desired bimolecular TTA-UC pathway, leading to a decrease in the available triplet population at time t . 67
Here, k Q is the rate for additional unimolecular triplet quenching pathways.…”
