In the present study, an investigation of the electronic excitation energy transfer between two p-type fluorescent semiconductors, F8BT [poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-alcohol-benzothiadiazole] and TIPS-P [6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene], has been carried out in a chloroform solution using steady-state and time-domain fluorescence techniques. The spectral overlap integral between donor (F8BT) emission and acceptor (TIPS-P) absorption is 2.04 × 10¹⁵ nm⁴/(M cm), and the corresponding critical transfer distance is 53.12 Å. In donor decay dynamics, at the lower acceptor concentrations, the observed results deviate from the Förster theory due to the combined effect of diffusion and energy migration. However, it does not exhibit energy migration and distribution for higher acceptor concentrations, and the system follows the Förster model of resonance excitation energy transfer (FRET). The higher value of the donor–acceptor interaction strength than self-interaction (donor–donor interaction) appears to be responsible for this behavior. Further, in acceptor decay, the appearance of the rise time and its decrease with the acceptor concentration confirms FRET from F8BT to TIPS-P.
