Abstract
Solvent radical cations (RCs) are the primary positive charge carriers that emerge upon ionizing irradiation of alkane solutions. Conductivity measurements of irradiated alkanes show that the rate and mechanism of solvent RC (hole) transport can differ radically in different types of alkanes [1, 2]. For example, the solvent RC mobility in cyclohexane is two orders of magnitude higher than the mobility of molecular ions. Such a high mobility is associated with fast degenerate electron exchange (DEE) between the solvent molecules and the holes:
