41. It is important to note that small concentrations of fluorescent impurities, such as monomers, can mask the true excitation spectra of these weakly fluorescent systems, and the data should be interpreted with caution.

59. i and ΔG° were calculated by retaining only singly excited configurations in the CI scheme, which allows for correlation effects in a more size-consistent way and provides transition energies in better agreement with experiment
60. Though we stress that eq 7 is already an improvement over the standard formulation that simply considers the interaction between point charges located at the centers of the donor/acceptor moieties, such a simplified model would lead to negative reorganization energies for small - as compared to the donor and acceptor radii - donor - acceptor interdistances
