Modelling exciton diffusion in disordered conjugated polymers
We present a combined quantum-chemical and Monte Carlo approach for calculating exciton transport properties in disordered organic materials starting from the molecular scale. We show that traps and energetic disorder are the main limitations for exciton diffusion in conjugated polymers. An analytical model for exciton hopping in a medium of sites with uncorellated energetic disorder gives a qu...
متن کاملLocalization and relaxation of singlet exciton formation in conjugated polymers under photoexcitation.
This paper employs a molecular dynamics approach to uncover the time profile of exciton formation, which can be divided into two stages: localization of electron-hole pairs and relaxation process (nuclear and electronic). Under photoexcitation, an electron-hole pair is formed by an electronic transition, and the pair in turn becomes localized through the electron-lattice interaction, which trig...
متن کاملScattering process between polaron and exciton in conjugated polymers.
Scattering process between a negative polaron and an exciton in a polymer chain is investigated by using the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model modified to include electron-electron interactions, the Brazovskii-Kirova symmetry breaking term, and an external electric field. It is found that the scattering process is spin dependent. If the polaron and the exciton have parallel spins, the polaron can easi...
متن کاملCoulomb screening and exciton binding energies in conjugated polymers
Hartree–Fock solutions of the Pariser–Parr–Pople and MNDO Hamiltonians are shown to give reasonable predictions for the ionization potentials and electron affinities of gas-phase polyenes. However, the energy predicted for formation of a free electron-hole pair on an isolated chain of polyacetylene is much larger than that seen in the solid state. The prediction is 6.2 eV if soliton formation i...
متن کاملStructure—Property Relationships for Exciton Transfer in Conjugated Polymers
The ability of conjugated polymers to function as electronic materials is dependent on the efficient transport of excitons along the polymer chain. Generally, the photophysics of the chromophore monomer dictate the excited state behavior of the corresponding conjugated polymers. Different molecular structures are examined to study the role of excited state lifetimes and molecular conformations ...
