Difference between pi-pi* transition and intramolecular charge transfer ICT in organic solar cells?
Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT( occurs from donors to acceptors in molecules. This phenomenon can be observed by visualizing the charge distribution patterns of HOMO and LUMO. While studying D-A ...
