Covalent dimers, particularly pentacenes, are the dominant platform for developing a mechanistic understanding of intramolecular singlet fission (iSF). Numerous studies have demonstrated that photoexcited state in these structures can rapidly and efficiently undergo exciton multiplication to form correlated pair triplets within single molecule, with potential applications from photovoltaics quantum information science. One most significant barriers limiting such dimers is fast recombination triplet pair, which prevents spatial separation formation long-lived states. There an ever-growing need develop general synthetic strategies control evolution following iSF enhance their lifetime. Here, we rationally tune dihedral angle interchromophore between pairs pentacenes systematic series bridging units facilitate separation. Through combination transient optical spin-resonance techniques, demonstrate torsion linker provides simple handle fine balance through-bond through-space couplings steer iSF.
