✦ Synopsis


Purely conformational contributions to dipole transition moments lead to a general new expression for the absorption spectrum offlexible conjugated polymers with persistence length <, and alternation 6. Blue-shifts are found at rod-to-coil transitions without invoking rotational defects that break the conjugation. Conformational coupling in the weak-disorder limit increases the effective
