Photoinduced on-chain charge-separation and ultrafast recombination in a sugar-coated insulated molecular wire

Transient absorption three-beam pump-push-probe experiments demonstrate that cyclodextrin-encapsulation of conjugated polymer chains prevents interchain effects, such as energy migration and charge hopping. In the unencapsulated polymer, transient population of high-lying singlet states leads to int...
