β¦ Synopsis
The isotropic exchange mediated spectral diffusion process in one-and two-dimensional systems with energetic as well as substitutional disorder has been studied by employing a Monte Carlo simulation technique. The dynamics and the mechanism of the spectral diffusion process have been investigated by monitoring the flow of energy of an excitation started at specified sites with a Gaussian distribution of the energy profile. The importance of acceptor concenlration and the excitation transfer topology for the switching of spectral diffusion has been observed. The concentration-dependent excitation transport efliciency in two dimensions is found to be consistent with the percolation model.

Many axons follow waveβlike undulating courses. This is a general feature of extracranial nerve segments, but is also found in some intracranial nervous tissue. The importance of axonal undulation has previously been considered, for example, in the context of biomechanics, where it has been shown th
