Relativistic effects in spectroscopy and photophysics of heavy-metal complexes illustrated by spin–orbit calculations of [Re(imidazole)(CO) 3(phen)]

Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) is an essential factor in photophysics of heavy transition metal complexes. By enabling efficient population of the lowest triplet state and its strong emission, it gives rise to a very interesting photophysical behavior and underlies photonic applications such as organic l...
