Solid-State Excimer Formation and Transportation

固体准分子的形成和传输--对一系列分子晶体中长期存在的固体准分子形成问题进行了理论研究。准分子是两个分子仅在激发态下结合在一起的电子激发。这个项目将研究这些实体的形成、传输和湮灭。这项工作的目标是将现有的庞大实验数据库统一在一个单一的理论保护伞下。这项提议将由DMR-材料理论(65%)和CHE(35%)共同资助。光与物质的相互作用已经成为一系列有用设备的基础，从激光和太阳能电池到窗户和双筒望远镜。在已知的各种相互作用途径中，激子可能是目前最不为人所知的。这个项目旨在将我们对激子相互作用的理解建立在坚实的基础上。这样的基础显然需要进一步了解这种独特的固态激发形式。这项提议将由DMR-材料理论(65%)和CHE(35%)共同资助。

Solid-State Excimer Formation and Transportation - A theoretical study of the long-standing problem of solid-state excimer formation in a range of molecular crystals is proposed. An excimer is an electronic excitation of two molecules bound together only in the excited state. Formation, transport, and annihilation of these entities will be studied in this program. The goal of this work is the unification of the vast existing experimental database under a single theoretical umbrella. This proposal will be cofunded by DMR-Materials Theory (65%) and CHE (35%). %%% The interaction of light with matter has been the basis for a wide range of useful devices, ranging from lasers and solar cells to windows and binoculars. Among the various paths known for such interaction, the exciton is perhaps the least well understood at this time. This project is intended to put our understanding of excitonic interactions on a firm foundation. Such a foundation in clearly needed to develop further understanding of this unique form of solid-state excitation. This proposal will be cofunded by DMR- Materials Theory (65%) and CHE (35%).
