Consequently, a faster reverse intersystem crossing rate (kRISC) was obtained in the aggregated state, facilitating photon upconversion, leading to enhanced delayed fluorescence. Further, the lone-pair electrons of the pyridinyl nitrogen atom were found to be

The low ΔEST facilitates the exciton upconversion through reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) [2], which is commonly known as thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) [16].

- aromatic rings that emit efficiently in very dilute solutions. However, the photoluminescence quantum yields tend to decrease or even fully quench in the aggregated or solid states, due to the well-known effect of aggregation caused quenching (ACQ) [9][10]. This is mainly related to intersystem crossing
