| Title |
Photoinduced infrared activity in polyacetylene |
| Date |
1983-06 |
| Description |
Photoexcitation of trans - but not cis -polyacetylene, results in the appearance of strongly-ir-active local modes at 1370 and 1260 cm-1. This observation demonstrates that the photogeneration of self-localized charge carriers is unique to the trans isomer. In spite of their localization the kinetic mass of these photocarriers is small, Mc ≈ (1-2.5)m, a result which is in quantitative agreement with calculations based on single-chain models. |
