27. In the present calculations, the x axis is settled to the main axis of the polymer backbone chain, and the y axis is settled so that the xy plane is equal to the skeleton plane of the trans-planar form. Therefore, the z axis is toward the out-of-skeleton plane.
28. 2h symmetry) also produces this type of energy gaps at point X, the origin of the symmetry lowering is different between PIC and such PA: The symmetry lowering in a PIC chain originates from the different-atoms catenation in the backbone, while that in a PA chain is caused by the bond alternation due to the Peierls instability.
29. Real polyisocyanate chains having alkyl-group side-chains produce the fundamental absorption edge at about 250 nm. This larger band-edge is caused, because these actual PIC has a slightly helical not planar backbone, which cuts the π and σ electronic delocalization and leads to a wider band gap: A. E.
