Fig. 1: C96-tBu8 properties.
a Chemical structure of the polyphenylene dendrimer 1 and the C96-tBu8. Molecular modeling showing the steric interactions between the tert-butyl groups along the long axis of the quantum dots. b Absorption (olive), photoluminescence excited at 470 nm (orange) and photoluminescence excitation recorded at 622 nm (dashed blue) spectra of C96-tBu8 in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene. The black lines correspond to the transitions calculated by DFT/TDDFT with their relative oscillator strength. c Time-resolved photoluminescence detected at 623 nm (green) and 673 nm (orange). IRF impulse response function (gray). The lifetime value is extracted from a mono-exponential decay fit. d DFT/TDDFT calculations of the first singlet state with vibronic coupling: absorption (olive) and photoluminescence (orange) spectra. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
