Abstract
Probability of singlet exciton decay into pairs of triplet excitons in organic molecular crystals is calculated. The dependence of the calculated probability on the separation of created pairs of triplet excitons, on temperature as well as on variations of equilibrium positions of molecules caused by changes of the state of electron excitations in the crystal is discussed. In conclusion there is given the estimation of the order of the probability value.
