The organic compounds optical properties database contains over 20,000 rows which are combination of 7,016 chromophores in 365 solvents and 17 solid matrices or in solid states. Chromophores included in the database consist of maximum 150 atoms (except H) of C, N, O, S, F, Cl, Br, I, Se, Te, Si, P, B, Sn, Ge. Out of these chromophores there are 956 that have reported properties in solid states (column Solvent and Chromophore are equal). 897 of solid state chromophores have non null value of maximum emission wavelength (nm)(dataset 1). Only solid state compounds were taken into account to avoid bias caused by solvent effects on maximum emission. A subset of compounds containing only C, O, N, F, H atoms was also examined in the study (dataset 2).
