23. We note that polyacene, acene, and oligoacene are often used exchangeably in the literature. In this paper, we use polyacene to mean the infinite polymer, consisting of linearly fused benzene rings.

56. The AFM state in our calculations of molecules using a supercell spin-polarized DFT approach corresponds to an unrestricted open-shell singlet state in a molecular orbital calculation with a cluster model.
57. The NM state in our calculations of molecules using a supercell DFT approach corresponds to a restricted closed-shell state in a molecular orbital calculation with a cluster model.
58. Here we use the term "ferromagnetic" in a rather loose sense, just to indicate that the spins at the two edges are all up. Strictly speaking, this phase should be called ferrimagnetic because some of the carbon atoms between the two edges are spin-down.
