• investigated via steady-state absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and gives first insights into the structure–optical property relationship of polyalkynylated quinolines. In particular, high fluorescence quantum yields have been determined for all studied compounds. Variation of the substitution pattern

• property; phosphorus; Introduction Phosphole-based heteroacenes are attracting increasing interest in various fields, such as organic synthesis, structural chemistry, and materials science [1][2][3][4]. The phosphorus atom of trivalent phosphorus compounds has a high chemical reactivity. Therefore, this

In particular, despite a comparable shape, the intensity of the absorption profiles, related to the donor content in the blend and responsible for the light harvesting and exciton generation, are

• optical property of a uniaxial phase in a monodomain can be described by two refractive indices spanning a rotationally symmetric ellipsoid, also called indicatrix (Figure 1, left side). There is one particular direction, perpendicular to the circular cross section of this special ellipsoid, along which
