A MECHANISM FOR ENERGY TRANSPORT BY EXCITONS.

Abstract

Detailed consideration of the effects of charged imperfections in solids shows two influences relevant to the question of energy transport associated with excitons. First, such defects create exciton traps, or at least tend to hinder ordinary exciton diffusion. Second, the defects alter the optical absorption in such a way as to provide a new mechanism for energy transport by the photons associated with excitons. (Author)
