  ABSTRACT: We consider a hybrid heterostructure containing an inorganic quantum well in close proximity with organic material as overlayer. The resonant optical pumping of Frenkel exciton can lead to an efficient indirect pumping of Wannier excitons. As organic material in such a hybrid structure, we consider crystalline tetracene. In tetracene, the singlet exciton energy is close to twice the one of triplet exciton state and singlet exciton fission into two triplets can be efficient. This process in tetracene is thermally activated and we investigate here how the temperature-dependent exciton energy transfer affects the functional properties of hybrid organic-inorganic nanostructures. We have obtained the exact analytical solution of diffusion equation for organics at different temperatures defining different diffusion lengths of excitons. The effectiveness of energy transfer in hybrid with tetracene was calculated by definite method for two selected temperatures that open possibility to operate in full region of temperatures. Temperature dependence of energy transfer opens a new possibility to turn on and off the indirect pumping due to energy transfer from the organic subsystem to the inorganic subsystem.
