Electrosoliton and lattice defects in hydrogen-bonded chains

In this paper, we investigate the behaviour of electrons in hydrogen-bonded chains and show that an electron can be bound in the compression area of the proton sublattice and becomes an electrosoliton state described by a bell-shaped electronic wave function. The influence of motion of the heavy-ion sublattice on the velocity of soliton defects and the cooperative transport of electrons and protons in hydrogen-bonded chains are discussed, respectively. The stability of the solution is discussed.
