Abstract

The polaron stability in organic molecular crystals is theoretically investigated in the scope of a two-dimensional Holstein-Peierls model that includes lattice relaxation. Particularly, the investigation is focused on designing a model Hamiltonian that can address properly the polaron properties in different model oligoacene crystals. The findings showed that a suitable choice for a set of parameters can play the role of distinguishing the model crystals and, consequently, different properties related to the polaron stability in these systems are observed. Importantly, the usefulness of this model is stressed by investigating the electronic localization of the polaron, which provides a deeper understanding into the properties associated with the polaron stability in oligoacene crystals.
