Elementary Excitations of a Linearly Conjugated Diatomic Polymer
Abstract
The low-lying particlelike excitations of a model linearly conjugated diatomic polymer, ${(A=B)}_{x}$, are found to be pairs of either spin-0 or spin-\textonehalf{} solitons with irrational charge values. The charge values and excitation energies are calculated as functions of the difference of the energy levels of the atomic $p$ orbitals of the two atomic constitutents of the unit cell. The phonon spectrum of the uniform polymer is also calculated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
