Fig. 4. Theoretical modeling of layer-dependent excitonic properties.

Fig. 4

a Schematic illustration of the excitonic band diagram of ML and multi-layer Me-PTCDI. For ML, the lowest excited state is purely Frenkel and coherent. For bulk, the excitonic states are mixed Frenkel/CT and incoherent. b Frenkel transition density in Me-PTCDI molecule (upper left) and the spatial distribution of the lowest excited state in small cluster (lower left) and large aggregate (right) in ML. Red and blue in single molecule denote transition electrons and holes. The color scale in cluster/aggregate stands for the value of exciton wavefunction at each site. c Calculated PL spectra of ML, bi-layer and multi-layer Me-PTCDI crystals. d Simulated temperature dependence of the PL emission intensity for ML (using 10 × 10 and 20 × 20 lattice) with comparisons to three experimental data sets.
