Adiabatic self-trapped states in carbon nanotubes
L. Brizhik, A. Eremko, B. Piette +2
We study here polaron (soliton) states of electrons or holes in a model describing carbon-type nanotubes. In the Hamiltonian of the system we take into account the electron-phonon…
Self-trapped electron states in nanotubes
L. Bratek, L. Brizhik, A. Eremko +3
We study numerically self-trapped (polaron) states of quasiparticles (electrons, holes or excitons) in a deformable nanotube formed by a hexagonal lattice, wrapped into a cylinder…
Electron self-trapping on a nano-circle
L. S. Brizhik, A. A. Eremko, B. Piette W. Zakrzewski
We study the self-trapping of quasiparticles (electrons, holes, excitons, etc) in a molecular chain with the structure of a ring, taking into account the electron-phonon interactio…
Solitons in alpha-helical proteins
L. Brizhik, A. Eremko, B. Piette +1
We investigate some aspects of the soliton dynamics in an alpha-helical protein macromolecule within the steric Davydov-Scott model. Our main objective is to elucidate the importan…
