Abstract

The general principles of the dynamic theory of vibronic spectra of molecular crystals are reviewed. This theory describes quantitatively both the energy spectrum and the absorption spectrum in the vibronic region, provided that the exciton band is narrow, as compared with the phonon frequency. This criterion is fulfilled, e.g., in aromatic molecular crystals (benzene and so on). The dynamic theory is closely connected with the theory of local exciton absorption spectra. Therefore, it allowes us to describe from a unified point of view the extensive experimental data on the spectra of perfect and doped crystals. As an example, the interpretation of the vibronic spectrum of naphthalene crystal is discussed briefly in the framework of the dynamic theory.
