Transfer of charge carriers between two sites of the same molecular entity (intramolecular CT) or between two molecular entities occurring in close proximity (intermolecular CT).
Notes:
- Electrons are implicitly considered as the charge carriers subject to a transfer. If other charge carriers (protons, quasiparticles) are considered, they should be explicitly mentioned.
- The molecular entity or the entity region from which electron(s) is(are) released is an electron donor while the molecular entity or the entity region accepting electron(s) is an electron acceptor.
