Have you ever wondered why pulsed illumination in rubrene single crystals fails to produce fluorescence quantum beats when a magnetic field is applied in the ab plane? Likely not. In any case, we found that the prescence of inequivalent molecules in the unit cell, combined with slow exciton diffusion (compared to tetracene), leads to high-field Transport-Induced Dephasing (TID). Chosen as an Editor's Suggestion!
