Which electronic configuration causes phosphorescence in organic molecules?

💡 Explanation

Phosphorescence arises because *intersystem crossing* populates a triplet state. Emission from this state is spin-forbidden (slower), therefore, radiation is emitted over longer timescales rather than via rapid decay from singlet fluorescence.
