Description
While functional materials often show effects that span an atomic to nanoscale range, the understanding of the underlying dynamics can be challenging due to both local and cooperative phenomena. This talk will give examples of how photo-excited nanosystems can be both described in a local, molecular and a cooperative picture. The definition of energy localisation, thermal equilibrium and temperature are critical quantities to clarify.
