Exciton coherence in highly disordered solid DBN: "band-to-band" ODMR transitions in zero field

Abstract

Optically detected ELDOR is used to study the 2 |E| band-to-band zero-field spin transition of quasi-one-dimensional triplet excitons in doped 1,4-dibromonaphthalene (16% deutero in proto). Results from line-narrowing experiments provide evidence for a model which correlates homogeneous spin dephasing to the dispersion in the ODMR frequencies of coherent excitons.
