The QCW-PIA is a versatile tool to investigate the long-lived photo-excited species with lifetimes ranging from microsecond to millisecond time scale. In this time regime, mobile and trapped polarons were recognized, and their long and short mean lifetimes were estimated using a modulation frequency dependence technique at 20 K.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAnthracene DerivativesQuasi-Continuous Wavelength Photo-Induced AbsorptionLong-Lived Photo-Excited StatesArticle
