Abstract
In a one dimensional lattice thermal fluctuations destroy the long-range order making particles of the lattice move on a scale much larger than the lattice spacing. We discuss the assumption that this motion may be responsible for the transport of localized electrons in a system of weakly coupled chains. The model with diffusing localization sites gives a temperature-independent mobility with a crossover to an activated dependence at high temperature. This prediction is consistent with and might account for experimental results on discotic liquid crystals and certain biopolymers.
