Density of States of Weakly Disordered Two-Dimensional Frenkel Excitons

ORAL

Abstract

The Coherent Potential Approximation (CPA) is used to study the optical properties of weakly disordered two-dimensional Frenkel exciton systems with nearest neighbor interactions. The transition frequencies are assumed to have Gaussian distribution. An approximate complex logarithmic Green's function for a square lattice with nearest neighbor interactions is used in the CPA self-consistent equation to determine the coherent potential. We show that the CPA results are in excellent agreement with previous numerical investigations.
