Abstract
The size dependent exciton dynamics of one-dimensional aggregates of substituted perylene bisimides are studied by ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy and kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations in dependence on the temperature and the excitation density. For low temperatures the aggregates can be treated as infinite chains and the dynamics is dominated by diffusion driven exciton-exciton annihilation. With increasing temperature the aggregates decompose into small fragments consisting of very few monomers. This scenario is also supported by the time dependent anisotropy deduced from polarization dependent experiments.
