Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The optical absorption of e tr in propanol arises from a 1s → vc transition that is itself determined by the effective short-range final state potential. The value of μ0, the microscopic mobility, is greater than μe¯s, and corresponds to a quasi-free state.

  2. 2.

    Formation of e tr in glassy polar organic matrices is possible only if the electronic energy is much greater than kT, the energy required for forming the polarized trap.

  3. 3.

    The estimated value of the microscopic electron mobility can be applied to liquid polar systems, since passage from liquid to glass does not markedly alter its value.
