Triplet photosensitizers (PSs) are compounds that can be efficiently excited to the triplet
excited state which subsequently act as catalysts in photochemical reactions. The name is …

In this perspective we introduce the basic photophysics of the excited-state intramolecular
proton transfer (ESIPT) chromophores, then the state-of-the-art development of the ESIPT …

Triplet–triplet annihilation (TTA) is a promising upconversion approach due to its low
excitation power density (solar light is sufficient), high upconversion quantum yield, readily …

Solar power production and solar energy storage are important research areas for
development of technologies that can facilitate a transition to a future society independent of …
