A general charge transport picture for organic semiconductors with nonlocal electron-phonon couplings

Weitang Li et al.

Summary: The nonlocal electron-phonon couplings in organic semiconductors responsible for the fluctuation of intermolecular transfer integrals have attracted recent interest. Through a numerical study of the Holstein-Peierls model, different scenarios like phonon-assisted transport, transient localization, and band-like transport were identified, each with distinct transport behaviors and characteristics. An intermediate regime was also identified where none of the established pictures applies, showing that the generally perceived hopping regime is limited within the proposed paradigm.
