Wavefunction Analysis of the Excited States in PPV Oligomers

F re 4-3. Absolute values of the INDO/SCl-calculated electron wavefunctions y/(x, X), = 34) calculated for the eleven-ring PPV oligomer as a function of carbon site (hole fixed on site 34) for the excited states corresponding to (a) the first absorption peak (3.0 eV) (b) the second absorption peak (3.8 eV) (c) the third absorption peak (5.6 eV) (d) the fourth absorption peak (6.3 eV) and (e) the fifth absorption peak (7.0 eV). The energies given between parentheses refer to the theoretical values.
