33. D are the calculated oscillator strength and the frequency of the electronic transition, respectively. This allows for a perfect match of the DMA results with the PDA model for long intermolecular separations.

37. The dimension is chosen such that, providing the excitation is within the PBC lattice, all sites in the cut-off lattice will still be present in the superlattice. If the excitation moves outside the PBC lattice, the excitation is moved to the corresponding site on the opposite side of the PBC lattice. This method of applying periodic boundary conditions is not exact, because the acceptor distribution and any interchannel disorder are not reproduced at the new site. However, for sufficiently large superlattices artifacts thus introduced are negligible. To ensure that the local structure of the superlattice is always matched by the two sub-lattices, two tables are created to translate the number labels between the lattices.
