Photoexcited pentacene, upon arriving via intersystem crossing into its lowest triplet state, has been extensively studied due to the large and relatively long-lived spin polarization that it exhibits. However, the spin dynamics of these triplets has not hitherto been accurately determined, with glaring inconsistencies between published values. Using zero-field transient electron paramagnetic resonance (ZF-trEPR), we here report the determination of a complete set of depopulation and spin–lattice relaxation rates for the lowest triplet state of pentacene doped at 0.1% into ap-terphenyl host crystal at room temperature in zero applied magnetic field. The rates of spin–lattice relaxation between the triplet’s sublevels are found to be highly anisotropic (i.e., transition-specific) and not negligible compared to the rates of depopulation from the same three sublevels back to pentacene’s ground state. The spin dynamics, as well as the ZF-trEPR technique reported here, can aid the rational, quantitative engineering of applications such as room-temperature masers and triplet dynamic nuclear polarization.
