Direct observation of ultrafast exciton localization in an organic semiconductor with soft X-ray transient absorption spectroscopy

A detailed understanding of ultrafast exciton dynamics is crucial for improving the efficiency of organic light-harvesting-devices. Here, the authors track exciton localization on a sub-50 fs timescale in an organic semiconductor using time resolved soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy.
