When a one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor nanostructure is immersed in a sluggish polar solvent, fluctuations of the medium may result in the appearance of localized electronic levels inside the band gap. An excess charge carrier can occupy…
When an excess charge carrier is added to a semiconducting polymer chain, it is well known that the carrier may self-trap into a polaronic state accompanied by a bond length adjustment pattern. A different mechanism of self-localization is…
