The multi-frequency fit is reproduced by the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm28, and the goodness-of-fit parameter χ2 is calculated as explained in reference 22 and in Supporting Information.
Quantum yields, Φ, are calculated by using the absolute value of 7.72 for Ru(phen)2dppz(CH3)2 2+ in 1,2-propanediol as reference.29
Apparent lifetimes are calculated as
