Femtosecond energy relaxation in π-conjugated polymers

Kersting, R., Lemmer, U., Mahrt, R. F., Leo, K., Kurz, H., Bässler, H., Göbel, E. O.·1993·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

Ultrafast relaxation processes in poly(p-phenylenevinylene) and its oligomers are investigated using femtosecond luminescence spectroscopy. A quasi-instantaneous luminescence rise and the absence of luminescence near the excitation energy indicate very rapid vibronic relaxation. The subsequent transient redshift of the spectra is attributed to ultrafast energy relaxation of optical excitations within an inhomogeneously broadened density of states.

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.
