The dynamics of charge separation, where the underlying mechanisms are a complex interplay of many contributing factors, govern the properties and performance of solar cells. Here, the authors investigate the role of vibrational motion in the charge dynamics of donor-acceptor networks using a non-perturbative simulation tool.
