Description:
Building upon the findings of Muto et al. [Phys. Lett. A 136 , 33 (1989)] and Marchesoni and Lucheroni [Phys. Rev. E 44 , 5303 (1991)] about the growth of the number of (anharmonic) lattice solitons with increasing temperature and using a recent transport theory developed by the present authors [A.P. Chetverikov, W. Ebeling, G. Röpke, M.G. Velarde, Eur. Phys. J. B 87 , 153 (2014)] here we provide the fractional power law of the temperature dependence of resistivity in a rather general model for one-dimensional crystal lattices as, e.g., conducting polymers. We also show that the determining factor for the transport is the possibility of forming electron-soliton bound states (in short solectrons) with a most significant contribution arising from the (bosonic) bound state of two electrons to a soliton (in short bisolectrons).
