a–c Dependence on temperature of the n- and p-type polaronic transverse relaxation times in DPPT-TT, AN, and NN, respectively. The red and blue arrows mark a transition in relaxation regime for holes and electrons, respectively. The first (per color per plot) marks the transition from inhomogenous broadening to motional narrowing, and the second from motional narrowing to high-temperature relaxation. The n-type T2 data for AN and NN has previously been published24, but is shown here for comparison. d–f Dependence of polaron mobilities on temperature across the three different materials. At low temperatures, polaronic mobilities differ by over an order of magnitude in DPPT-TT, while they are within an order of magnitude in AN (Low-temperature data is not available for NN for reasons mentioned in the main text). Above 200 K, polaronic mobilities are nearly equal in DPPT-TT, while in AN and NN there remains a significant difference.
