Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, which is applied to measure distributions of hole volume sizes in polymers, uses a model to relate the positronium (Ps) lifetime to hole volume dimensions. It is assumed in this model that the Ps remains in one site until annihilation. Recently, the validity of this last assumption has been questioned by Yu et al.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
