Unravelling the nature of energy transport in multi-chromophoric photosynthetic complexes is essential to extract valuable design blueprints for light-harvesting applications. Long-range exciton transport in such systems is facilitated by a…

We analyze the origin and features of localized excitations in a discrete two-dimensional Hamiltonian lattice. The lattice obeys discrete translational symmetry, and the localized excitations exist because of the presence of nonlinearities.…

In semiconductors, exciton or charge carrier diffusivity is typically described as an inherent material property. Here, we show that the transport of excitons (i.e., bound electron-hole pairs) in CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals (NCs)…

Using a toy model, we examine the propagation of excitons in Cu$_2$O, which form localized pulses under certain experimental conditions. The formation of these waves is attributed to the effect of dispersion, non-linearity and the coupling…
