N2 - We have investigated intermolecular charge transfer (CT) excited states and demonstrated their contribution to the excitation-relaxation and photocarrier generation mechanisms for both (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) polycrystalline films. This has been done (1) experimentally, using UV-visible absorption (Abs) and electroabsorption (EA), luminescence and its modulation by external electric-field and steady-state photoconductivity; (2) semiempirically, analyzing the Abs and EA spectra in order to determine the CT state energies and to estimate the variation of the average polarizability tensor and the dipole moment; and (3) theoretically, by performing calculations of polarization energies and electrostatic stabilization energies. The most significant CT states have been identified at approximately 2.43 and 3.50 eV for (Formula presented) films and at 2.26 and 3.60 eV for (Formula presented) films (data from the semiempirical analysis). Their properties have been discussed in terms of crystallographic and electronic structure, with special emphasis on their mixing with Frenkel states.
