45. 25a dipole-dipole interaction between the neighboring PDI moieties i and i + 1 or i + 3 is expected to be very minor not only because of the larger interchromophoric distance (∼2.5 nm between their center-of-masses) but also due to the nearly perpendicular orientation of the main transition dipole moments of these chromophore pairs (β = 96°).
46. To calculate the exciton interaction for the dimer formed by PDI units i and i + 4, we have applied the formulae given in ref 25a to the geometry of the polymer drawn in Figure 3c and the PDI monomer absorption spectrum in Figure 4a.

54. Studies in our group on amino acid derived polyisocyanides have proven that at least 10-15 repeat units are necessary for the hydrogen bonding interactions between polymer side chains to stabilize the backbone helical conformation.
