16. These unfavorable photophysical properties result from the proximity (in energy) of the lowest-lying MLCT and metal-centered (MC) states, with the latter governing the excited-state decay dynamics by thermally activated surface crossing. This topic has been clarified and is reported in detail in several reviews.

26. The electronic interaction between the chromophores has to be weak, otherwise a single (delocalized) excited state is populated and equilibration between states, the key point of the strategy (see later), is meaningless.
