Non-Markovian stochastic Schrödinger equation in k-space toward the calculation of carrier dynamics in organic semiconductors
2019
A non-Markovian stochastic Schrodinger equation developed in our former work [Y. Ke and Y. Zhao, J. Chem. Phys. 147, 184103 (2017)] is extended to the reciprocal (k-) space to calculate the carrier dynamics in organic semiconductors with both local and nonlocal carrier-phonon interactions taken into account. The validity of this approach is examined by comparing with numerically exact benchmark results. As an application, the carrier mobilities are calculated within a one-dimensional periodic lattice model. The results reveal an inversion in the magnitude of the mobility as the nonlocal carrier-phonon interaction varies from weak to strong strengths, indicating a transition of the transport mechanism. This is also demonstrated by a variation in the temperature dependence of the mobility. In addition, a transient localization diffusive behavior caused by intramolecular vibrations is also found.A non-Markovian stochastic Schrodinger equation developed in our former work [Y. Ke and Y.
