Very interesting work led by @Gio_Ben_ featuring Anti-Kasha emission and Herzberg-Teller coupling in nanographenes. Congratulations!!🥳👏

[Giovanni Beneventi @Gio_Ben_]

Great to see one of the main projects of my PhD out in @J_A_C_S !

Here we show how molecular length affects the interplay between dark and bright excited states: the longer the higher the fluorescence quantum yield!💡

Many thanks to all collaborators! @FabriziaNegri @CadraLab
