Chasing Waterfalls: A Cascade Mechanism to Generate Triplets from <sup>2</sup>LMCT States Earth-abundant ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) chromophores in donor–acceptor dyads unlock an electron transfer pathway for efficient triplet state formation.

Use intramolecular electron transfer to make long-lived excited states out of short-lived LMCTs

It was a great honor to receive the Early Career Researcher Lectureship Prize from the RSC Photophysics and Photochemistry Group!
I had the chance to present my results on nanographenes at the Imperial College during the latest RSC meeting.

Many thanks for the recognition and kind invitation!
