Theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers

We develop a theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers. Following photoexcitation of the “bright” state (i.e., a singlet electron–hole pair) in a single carotenoid, the first step in the singlet fission process is ultrafast intramolecular conversion into the highly correlated “dark” (or 2Ag) st...
