Excitons in conjugated oligomer aggregates, films, and crystals
Article Abstract:
The technologically important unsubstituted oligo-phenylene vinylenes (OPVn) and oligo-thiophenes (OTn), which display side-by-side herringbone crystal, are discussed. The key photophysical properties displayed by OPVn and OTn solid phases, including the large Davydov splitting, the variety of peaks due to vibronic coupling in both absorption and emission, and the unusual behavior of the emission origin, are accounted for in a model including excitonic coupling between molecules, linear exciton-phonon coupling, and disorder.
