Abstract
The notion of “conjugation length” has been commonly used in the interpretation of Resonance Raman Scattering spectra from solid polyacetylene [1] or conjugated polymer solutions [2,3]. This “length” ξ is usually of the order of 30 to 200 Å. A simple way of interrupting electronic derealization is by introducing a strong defect : a chemical impurity like a -CH2- group into the CH)X chain, or a physical defect of unspecified nature. Several papers in this volume consider the influence of such defects theoretically and experimentally.
