Coherent Exciton Dynamics and Trapping in Topologically Disordered Systems

Quantum Physics 2010-02-04 v1 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

We analyze the coherent dynamics of excitons in three dimensional topologically disordered networks with traps. If the interactions between the nodes of the network are long ranged, i.e., algebraically decaying as a function of the distance between the nodes, the average survival probability of an exciton surprisingly shows a characteristic decay with features similar to the decay found for regular one-dimensional systems. We further show how this decay can be related to the eigenstates of the same system without a trap.
