title: Reversible exciplex formation followed charge separation.
abstract: The reversible exciplex formation followed by its decomposition into an ion pair is considered, taking into account the subsequent geminate and bulk ion recombination to the triplet and singlet products (in excited and ground states). The integral kinetic equations are derived for all state populations, assuming that the spin conversion is performed by the simplest incoherent (rate) mechanism. When the forward and backward electron transfer is in contact as well as all dissociation/association reactions of heavy particles, the kernels of integral equations are specified and expressed through numerous reaction constants and characteristics of encounter diffusion. The solutions of these equations are used to specify the quantum yields of the excited state and exciplex fluorescence induced by pulse or stationary pumping. In the former case, the yields of the free ions and triplet products are also found, while in the latter case their stationary concentrations are obtained.
