Abstract

We discuss the interference of π-electronic and structural defects for the crystal structure in polyacetylene. We consider the local crystallografic modifications caused by solitons and the special type of backbone solitons — the twistons. The role of twistons in formation of hexagonal or tetragonal phases with unhindered rotations at finite dopant concentration is discussed.
