Figure 1

Pictorial representation of the excited states formed in a strand of four stacked adenines, represented by rectangles. The curved line is the backbone. Dashed, empty circles depict electron holes, and solid and filled circles depict excited electrons. To define the different types of excitations, thresholds for the average delocalization length (DLav) and charge transfer (CT) descriptors are given.
