Abstract
Some characteristic features of charge-transfer (CT) excitons and related properties are reviewed for two kinds of DA complex systems; PMDA-complexes and TMB-complexes. For PMDA complexes, discussions are made on the self-trapping of singlet CT excitons, and on the hybridization of triplet CT and triplet Frenkel excitons, on the basis of absorption, fluorescence and phosphorescence spectra. Then, anomalous dielectric and electric properties of TMB complexes are reviewed, and the results are discussed in relation with the structural instability associated with the CT excitation in the quasi-one dimensional DA complex crystals.
