Photosensitizer

Our research group is presently investigating the potential of utilizing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials as photosensitizers. TADF, traditionally associated with enhanced efficiency in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), offers a compelling avenue for advancing the field of photocatalysis. By modulating the electronic properties of TADF emitters, our aim is to drive progress in sustainable energy and environmental remediation. Indeed, TADF materials distinguish themselves in photocatalysis by their unique ability to harness triplet energy—a characteristic that sets them apart from traditional fluorescent photocatalysts. We welcome collaboration and exploration as we endeavor to harness triplet energy for the development of more efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly catalytic processes.
