Can increasing the size and flexibility of a molecule reduce decoherence and prolong charge migration?

Coherent superposition of electronic states, created by ionizing a molecule, can initiate ultrafast dynamics of the electron density. Correlation between nuclear and electron motions, however, typically dissipates the electronic coherence in only a few fem ...
