Singlet fission (SF) can create spin-polarized quintet states in organic systems, but this effect and its potential applications have not been sufficiently explored. Here, authors demonstrate that SF in supramolecular assemblies of pentacene chromophores improves the sensitivity of magnetic resonance of water molecules through dynamic nuclear polarization in a water-glycerol glass.
