The wavelength in bold indicates the major signal.
Calculated from the long-wavelength absorption edge (Eg(opt) = 1240/λonest).
Obtained by exciting each absorption maximum.
Calculated using integration sphere (conc ∼6 × 10–6).
Stokes shift in nm is calculated as the difference between absorption and emission maxima.53
Stokes shift in cm–1 is calculated as the difference between lowest energy absorption band and emission maximum.
Cor = corannulene.
sh = shoulder.
